Description A hybrid between Red and Silver Maple, it can be classified as Acer x freemanii. Combines the best features of both parents: the drought tolerance of Silver Maple and the fall color of Red Maple. Better branch habit than Silver Maple, though not as refined as Red Maple. Use it as a Red maple for tough sites, or as a Silver Maple with fantastic fall color. |
