    Nursery contributed plant descriptions

    This fine columnar sugar maple is denser and fuller that some upright cultivars giving it a more robust and vigorous look. Bright-green lush foliage on this 15-25' tall by 5-15' wide tree bursts in to flames of yellows and oranges in autumn. This handsome tree makes a fine focal point or a handsome screen. S/M
