Go for the 6-7ft WORTH IT!

I got a BOGO and they are beautiful! Gave one to a friend. I had planted a smaller version a couple years ago but it did not make it through a hard freeze we had. Unfortunately the year warranty had passed but this time I bought bigger ones. Still GREAT VALUE for what you get. It’s doing well and looks great.

Fast Growing Trees Plant ExpertKristen, we’re so glad to hear your Autumn Blaze Red Maples are doing well. The larger size can make a big difference when establishing a tree, and it’s wonderful to hear you’re happy with the value. If you ever have questions about care, freezes, or anything else, our team is always here with tips and advice.

Nice trees

Hoped for a thicker trunk. One had a injury and they promptly sent another! So that was great.

Fast Growing Trees Plant ExpertHi Rebecca, so glad our team was quick to make things right on the damaged one! On the trunk thickness we do specialize in younger trees which typically have a caliper between half an inch and one inch. The great thing about younger trees is they establish quickly and adapt really well to new environments. That said they're going to fill out beautifully as they mature!
