The Red Sunset Maple is a highly popular deciduous cultivar known for its symmetrical, upright-oval growth habit and vigorous performance. Reaching heights of forty to fifty feet, it serves as an excellent shade or street tree. Its glossy dark green leaves provide a lush summer canopy before transforming into a brilliant, reliable display of orange and red in the fall. It adapts well to various soil types but prefers moist, acidic conditions and full sun for the most intense color.
