From November to March, We ship these plants in their dormant state, but it is the best time to plant. This means they will have no leaves and much less care. The stem will be strewn with buds for this coming spring's growth. If you live in a southern state, these will push new growth upon planting them as dormancy is dependent on hours of daylight and temperature. We are located in PA State and temperatures can differ drastically around the country. Plant Directions: Soak roots in water for 24 hours if the plant is very stress during the shipping. Transplant into rich potting soil in a large pot (gallon size or larger). Soil line is about 2 inches above the roots. Water well then keep the soil moist but not saturated (well drained). Keep in bright indirect sunlight until established (at least 2 months) then move gradually into full sun. Outside planting is best in the late fall while they are dormant or in early spring after all chance of frost and plants are well established. If your soil is poor, mix it half and half with potting soil. Use a tree and shrub fertilizer after established according to package directions. Red Maple, Acer saccharum Tree (Northern Source) Brilliant Fall Colors, Shade Tree, Bonsai, Attracts Birds, Wildlife Food/Shelter, Wind and Urban Tolerant Red Maple is a large, moderate to slow growing, long lived deciduous tree. It will typically grow 40 to 80 feet tall (sometimes to 100 feet) with a large dense, rounded crown and a trunk up to 3 feet in diameter. It is one of the giants of the forest providing abundant shade and beautiful fall foliage. Red Maple has deeply furrowed gray bark which turns almost black when wet. Its leaves are medium green, opposite, palmately lobed (3 to 6 inches wide with 3 to 5 lobes) turning brilliant yellow, orange and red in autumn. Fruit are two-winged horseshoe-shaped samaras about 1 inch long, appearing in clusters, brown when mature in the fall. Red Maple grows about 1 foot each year in most soils but is sensitive to reflected heat and to drought, turning the leaves brown (scorch) along their edges. Leaf scorch from dry soil is often evident in areas where the root system is restricted to a small soil area, such as a street tree planting. It is more drought tolerant in open areas where the roots can proliferate into a large soil space. Red Maple is a main component of the Eastern U.S. hardwood forest and is one of the trees which are most responsible for giving New England its reputation for spectacular fall color. This majestic tree is an excellent choice for larger landscapes, parks, and estates. It is not particularly tolerant of air pollution, though.
