Acer rubrum, commonly known as the Red Maple, is a highly versatile and widely admired deciduous tree valued for its vibrant seasonal color, adaptability, and refined form. Native to North America, this species is an exceptional choice for residential landscapes, commercial properties, and urban plantings due to its rapid growth rate, reliable hardiness, and minimal maintenance requirements.
Displaying brilliant red hues in early spring flowers, summer stems, and striking fall foliage, the Red Maple brings visual interest to every season. Its broadly pyramidal to rounded canopy provides ample shade, while its strong branching structure and tolerance for a range of soil types—including moist or slightly acidic conditions—make it an easy and resilient landscape addition.
