Description

Hello, I am Autumn Blaze Maple! Like my name suggests, I am best known for my fiery red and orange leaves that emerge in the fall. In the spring, I feature an abundance of showy clusters that sprout along my upright growing branches. I am a popular choice as an alternative for locations where a red maple may not grow or thrive, as I don't have any soil preference - I've never met a garden I didn't want to grow in! I am low maintenance, only requiring pruning in the summer once my leaves have fully developed. I am highly adaptable when it comes to soil and pH, and I am very tolerant of urban pollution - you can plant me right in the city! I am happiest, healthiest and most beautiful when I am grown in full sunlight in average to wet soil.

Care Guide

  • Pruning: Prune in late winter or early spring before the leaves emerge, while the tree is still dormant. This is the best time to shape the tree and remove any dead or damaged branches.
  • (Optional):Fertilizer: Autumn Blaze Maples generally do not need regular fertilization, but a slow-release fertilizer can be applied in the spring to promote growth and health. Follow the manufacturer's instructions for application rates and timing.
