Dazzling Color Arrives Earlier & Lasts Longer

Why Red Sunset ® Maple Trees?

Delivering outstanding red and orange color weeks earlier than other varieties, the Red Sunset® is one of the best maples on the market. This tree’s deep, dazzling red hues can develop almost one month before other similar varieties, giving you longer-lasting fall color.

The Red Sunset ® displays rich, vivid color where other maples can't. Whether you're in a cold climate with temperatures down to -20 degrees or a hot, dry desert up to zone 9, you get the promise of intense color. The Red Sunset® is much more drought-resistant than other varieties too, so it keeps on looking great despite little water. Plus, its strong branching stands up to high winds and intense storms with ease.

Nothing can stop the Red Sunset® from displaying its vivid range of bright hues. Plant your Red Sunset® Maple along the road’s edge, in borders, or as an ornamental that stands on its own. No matter where it grows, the Red Maple puts on a show and transforms your landscape into the best yard on the block.

Just thought it had somewhat

Just thought it had somewhat leaves to it already. Right now it’s just a long twig in the ground.

Love My Tree

My tree was delivered in perfect condition. I can't wait to see it grow. We planted it last week, and I already see some little buds coming out on it. I'll update later when it blooms it's leaves. It was very easy to plant.

Maple great. One blackgum also great. One blackgum very badly root bound.

One blackgum, which was in burlap but had obviously been grown in a pot, had roots so tightly wound around themselves that we had to cut many of them to prevent strangling. We will baby all three trees and monitor this one's progress through the next year.
