Autumn Blaze Maple is an outstanding and very popular red maple that puts on an amazing fall display of color. It is an upright, fast-growing, deciduous shade tree that can grow 40 to 50 feet tall with ascending branching and a dense, broad-oval crown.
The foliage turns into a gorgeous autumn blaze of orange-red to scarlet-red fall color. It is very tolerant of dry or wet soil conditions, and is relatively disease resistant. Â Autumn Blaze Maples are one of the most desired Red Maple cultivars, but can be hard-to-find especially later in summer.
