Add vibrant native color and reliable shade to your landscape with Red Maple.
Aesthetics & Form
Spring: Small, brilliant red flower clusters bloom early along branches before leaves emerge, signaling the start of spring.
Summer: Dense, medium-green foliage provides fast-growing shade with a classic rounded to oval crown.
Autumn: Renowned for spectacular, long-lasting fall color ranging from intense crimson and scarlet to bright orange-red.
Winter: Smooth gray bark on young trunks and contrasting red twigs add visual interest to cold landscapes.
Wildlife & Ecological Value
Early Pollinators: Spring blooms serve as one of the earliest food sources for emerging native bees and honeybees.
Wildlife Food: Seeds (samaras) feed songbirds, grosbeaks, and small mammals like squirrels and chipmunks.
Host Plant: Hosts over 250 species of native caterpillars, providing essential forage for nesting backyard birds.
Quick Planting Guide
Sunlight: Full sun to partial shade (best fall foliage develops in full sun).
Soil: Highly adaptable; thrives in wet, poorly drained sites as well as average yard soils. Prefers slightly acidic pH to maintain deep green leaf color.
Spacing: Space 20–30 ft apart for lawn trees or shade canopies; plant 12–15 ft apart for large property screens.
Establishment: Dig a hole twice as wide as the pot. Water deeply and regularly during the first 1–2 growing seasons until well rooted.
