The Details

Acer truncatum x A. platanoides 'Warrenred' Pacific Sunset Profile

Acer truncatum × platanoides 'Warrenred' – Pacific Sunset Maple is a compact, deciduous shade tree with a dense, rounded crown and consistent seasonal colour. Glossy green foliage holds throughout the growing season before turning vivid orange-red in autumn, offering strong visual contrast in structured spaces.

They look excellent in urban gardens, streetscapes, or along driveways where form, colour, and spatial efficiency are priorities. This hybrid combines the toughness of Norway maple with the vibrant colour of Chinese maple, making it particularly suited to modern landscapes with limited space.

Low maintenance and highly adaptable, it delivers year-round structure in residential and commercial designs.

Plant Spacing Recommendations

Hedging & Screening: Not suitable for hedging

Feature Tree: Plant 6 m – 7 m apart to allow full crown development and colour display

Avenue Planting: Space 6 m – 8 m apart for structured streetscape rows and consistent canopy coverage
