The Red Rocket Red Maple, also known as Acer rubrum 'Red Rocket', is a stunning tree that offers a burst of color throughout the year. This variety of Red Maple is known for its narrow, upright growth habit and its brilliant red fall color.
The Red Rocket Red Maple typically grows to a height of 30-35 feet with a spread of around 15-20 feet at maturity. This makes it an excellent choice for smaller landscapes or areas where space is limited. It prefers full sun to partial shade and is adaptable to a variety of soil conditions, but it thrives best in slightly acidic, moist, well-drained soils.
Like other maples, it's important to water this tree regularly, especially during dry periods. Pruning is best done in late summer or early fall to prevent sap bleed.
This tree is a great choice for adding vertical interest and color to your landscape. It's also resistant to many pests and diseases, making it a relatively low-maintenance choice.
