Acer – Maples

Beloved for their rapid growth and spectacular fall colors, Acer (Maples) are North America’s favorite shade trees. Aside from their canopy of lush green leaves in spring and summer and exquisite fall foliage, some Maple species and varieties also offer a particularly attractive growth habit and interesting bark which make them standouts in the winter landscape. Easy to grow, Maples flourish in sunny locations in moist but well-drained sites.
