The Green Mountain Sugar Maple features the classic lobed leaves of the Sugar Maple, which turn a vibrant shade of yellow, orange, and red in the fall. The foliage provides a breathtaking display of autumn colors. In addition to its ornamental value, this tree is also tapped for its sap, which is used to produce maple syrup.
This tree thrives in full sun to partial shade and prefers well-draining soil. It is relatively low-maintenance and can tolerate a range of soil conditions. Regular watering is important, especially during dry periods, to keep the soil consistently moist.
The Green Mountain Sugar Maple is a popular choice for adding shade, beauty, and the potential for maple syrup production to landscapes, parks, and larger gardens. Its stunning fall foliage and versatility make it a standout feature in any setting.
