Acer Freemanii Autumn Blaze |
|
|
 |
The Acer Freemanii Autumn Blaze is commonly
known as the Autumn Blaze Maple. It is a hybrid of red maple and
silver maple that combines the best features of both The Autumn Blaze
has the vigor and adaptability of the silver maple along with the beauty
and strength of the red maple.
Like its silver maple parent, Autumn Blaze
grows quickly. The growth rate of this cultivar is about four times faster
than that of a red maple. Under optimal conditions it can grow 3 feet or
more per year. Eventually it will grow to 50 feet tall and 40 feet wide.
At maturity it will have an oval to rounded
crown with ascending branches and a well-defined central leader. This tree
is not as susceptible to storm damage as silver maple because it has superior
crotch angles and a well-balanced branching habit (inherited from its red
maple parent) but still has the weaker wood characteristic of the silver
maple. It grows in a very uniform shape, so requires little pruning.
Summer foliage is medium green. In the
fall Autumn Blaze consistently develops brilliant, long-lasting orange-red
color. This vivid color, as well as its rapid growth rate, is the main
reason to plant this tree. It also has some winter interest , with the
new growth retaining a red color after leaf drop that persists until the
following season.
