Available for Store Pickup or Local Delivery Only Red Sunset® Red Maple sets itself apart from other red maples with its distinctively pyramidal form, giving it a more refined, upr ight presence in the landscape than the typical rounded shade tree. In early spring, clusters of red flowers emerge on bare branches before the leaves, offering a welcome burst of color after winter. Through summer, the lobed green canopy provides generous shade, then delivers one of the most reliable and vivid red fall color displays of any maple available, with furrowed silver bark and brick red branches adding additional interest through the winter months. Adaptable to wet soils and tolerant of some standing water, it is a long-lived, low-maintenance choice for large yards, boulevards, and parks.
