The October Glory® Red Maple, also known by its scientific name Acer rubrum 'October Glory', is a deciduous tree native to North America. It's known for its vibrant fall color and oval-rounded shape.
Here are some key features of the October Glory® Red Maple:
-
Foliage: The leaves are medium to dark green in the summer, turning a vibrant red to reddish-purple in the fall, hence the name "October Glory".
Attractive red flowers bloom in spring before the foliage emerges and gives way to red-tinged samaras. Grows best in rich, moist, slightly acidic well-drained soils. October Glory holds its foliage into fall longer than with most cultivars.
