OCTOBER GLORY MAPLE 7gal

October Glory Maple, Acer rubrum 'October Glory, ' lives up to its name, providing a spectacular and extended display of vibrant fall color. While our 'Red Sunset' offers brilliant scarlet, 'October Glory' tends to develop deeper shades of red, often with hints of orange and burgundy mixed in, creating a truly glorious autumn spectacle that often lasts even longer into the fall season here in Prescott.

This maple boasts a well-branched, oval to rounded crown, providing ample shade during our warm summer months. Its dark green leaves are attractive throughout the growing season, offering a lovely contrast to lighter-colored plants. 'October Glory' is also known for its relatively fast growth rate and its reliable and consistent fall color, year after year.

It's quite adaptable to various soil types, preferring well-drained conditions, and thrives in full sun, which is essential for the best fall color development. It's also known for its good heat tolerance, making it a suitable choice for our Arizona climate.

To ensure your 'October Glory' Maple flourishes and delivers that breathtaking autumn show, amend the planting hole with Watters Premium Mulch to improve soil structure and water retention. A spring feeding with Watters 7-4-4 All Purpose Plant Food will support strong growth and contribute to the intensity and longevity of its fall colors. This is a fantastic selection for adding reliable shade and a truly stunning and long-lasting autumn display to your landscape.
