Brandywine Maple delivers some of the most spectacular and long-lasting fall color of any red maple, glowing in deep red that mellows to brilliant purple. A seedless selection, it stays tidy without messy fruit, holding a neat, pyramidal form. Its glossy green summer foliage casts dependable shade over lawns and patios. Plant it in sun to part shade, where it adapts to a range of soils including damp sites. Its prolonged autumn display extends the color season beautifully. For unbeatable fall color on a clean, manageable tree, Brandywine is a winner.
