Red Maple (Acer)
£185.00*
These trees are currently not available but can be pre-ordered now for delivery in September 2009.
This vigorous oval headed large tree has dark green, deeply indented leaves which turn flame red in autumn. Many Red Maple types from American do poorly on UK soils but this clone has the toughness of its parents, Silver Maple and Red Maple, to make it a viable choice. It prefers sheltered environments and may get too big for smaller gardens.
Species available: Acer x freemanii Autumn Blaze, Acer rubrum Red Sunset, Acer rubrum Scanlon.
If you would like to choose the species you will receive, please specify in the special delivery instructions during checkout, if not we will pick a stunning specimen for you.
