#red maple tree

[amnhnyc]

It’s the first day of fall, and few things make it feel more like autumn than the foliage of the red maple tree (Acer rubrum). But did you know? The deciduous tree sports something red all year round. In winter, it has red buds; in spring, red flowers begin to bloom; in summer, the leaf stalks turn red; and in autumn, the foliage is a vivid orange-red. This tree originates in the Atlantic Northeast but is a popular ornamental plant across the United States because it thrives in a variety of soil types.

Plant of the Day

Saturday 24 May 2025

As part of a woodland garden walk the highlight was this vibrant Acer palmatum 'Atropurpureum' (purple Japanese maple) catching the sunshine. This small tree has bronze-crimson leaves divided into about 7 lobes, and it becomes a vibrant red in the autumn. This tree needs a sheltered location from strong winds.
