Acer rubrum 'October Glory'
Acer rubrum 'October Glory' – Canadian Maple is a tall, deciduous tree with a broad, symmetrical canopy and strong vertical structure. Glossy green foliage transitions to vivid red and violet in late autumn, often lasting longer than other red maple cultivars. Small red flowers appear in early spring before the leaves emerge.
They look excellent in avenue plantings, along driveways, or as feature trees in large landscapes where late-season colour and reliable shade are important. With moderate to fast growth and consistent form, this cultivar suits a wide range of civic and residential applications requiring autumn impact and minimal structural pruning.
Ideal for temperate regions where dependable colour and form are essential.
