Considered one of the best for early fall color! The glossy green leaves provide a very dynamic show, as they turn a brilliant orange-scarlet when temperatures begin to cool. This large deciduous tree has a pyramidal form when young that becomes rounded with age. A wonderful choice for use as a high-profile shade tree in larger landscapes. Average landscape size: Moderate growing; reaches 40 to 50 ft. tall, 30 to 35 ft. wide.
