Acer rubrum ‘Burgundy Belle’

The fall color is especially nice, with the leaves initially turning a brilliant red and then changing to an intense burgundy. These vibrant, almost fluorescent, burgundy red leaves glow in the autumn sunlight and holds the color for a long period of time. With an excellent symmetrical branching habit, this is a great choice for street plantings and small landscapes. 'Burgundy Belle' maple also exhibits excellent heat and drought tolerance. It is best to train the central leader when the tree is young and will mature to a compact well-shaped symmetrical form.
