Also known as the Red Maple tree, it is a single-stemmed deciduous tree that initially grows ovate but matures to a more pyramidal cone form. This upright beauty contrasts brilliantly with its dark green leaves. It is definitely an exceptional eye-catcher that will enrich your garden! Unlike other Acer 'rubrum', this one brings its reddish colours in the summer, and in the autumn, you will experience a real colour explosion when the leaf turns yellow. This impressive variety shows itself in a dress of light reddish-brown young leaves and dark green full-grown leaves throughout the summer. The attractive 5-lobed, glossy green leaves stay reddish over the summer and turn yellow in autumn. The older leaves that grow dark green provide excellent contrast. The tree flourishes in March with red flower umbels. The Summer Red tree thrives in a nutrient-rich and moist soil but has no special requirements, although it dislikes calcareous soil or heavy clay. It can thrive even on drier sites, planted in a full sun to partial shade location. Overall, the red maple 'Summer Red' proves to be undemanding, easy to care for, and frost-hardy, tolerating temperatures down to -25 degrees Celsius. It does not tolerate strong winds and therefore requires protection against them. The red maple 'Red Sunset' is great for avenues, streets, and parks. Its grey and slightly furrowed bark makes it appear shiny as a single specimen in parks, larger home gardens, or avenues. The Acer Summer Red Tree boasts vibrant summer foliage, making it a charming addition to any garden or landscape. Its compact size allows it to fit perfectly into various outdoor spaces. As a hardy tree, it requires minimal maintenance, making it a favored choice for gardening enthusiasts. Its year-round appeal, especially during summer, creates a captivating spectacle, enhancing the allure of your surroundings. Flourishing in well-draining soil with regular watering, it sustains its vibrant appearance throughout the year. Providing partial to full sun exposure allows it to flourish magnificently. Embrace the enchantment of the Acer Summer Red Tree and elevate your outdoor space with its vibrant foliage and captivating charm.
