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.

Stunned
I want to give Fast Growing Trees and their representative, Ash, a VERY positive review. I received my Sunset Red maple from them at the end of February and planted it the next day. Six weeks later it was dead. On May 2nd I chatted with Ash (don't know if that is a man or a woman but it doesn't matter) about my tree dying. We determined that, through my ignorance, I had over watered it and caused it to die. My warranty time was past by 4 days so I accepted that I was out of the money that I had spent on it, and, even though disappointed, forgot about it. On May 19th I was stunned to see that FGT had delivered to me a new tree! It was entirely my fault that the first tree had died but they sent me another tree! This is WAY beyond the call of duty, this was incredible integrity! This is EXTREMELY rare in business in this day! You can be sure that I will recommend FGT to my friends and family. Thank you FGT!

Healthy and already growing!
Great o have such a high quality tree at that great price. Already planted and showing signs of new growth. Thanks.
I am a little nervous. . . . thought
I am a little nervous. . . . thought it would have red leaves. When I went on line it said the leaves turn red in the fall. Would like to confirm that. I just wish it was a little more "perkier". Your paperwork did say it may take some time. Thank you
Very good quality
Healthy looking tree, arrived packed well, on time . Tree was bigger than I expected
