Brandywine Maple
The Brandywine Maple, Acer rubrum 'Brandywine', is known for its long lasting, brilliant reddish purple fall color. Only male flowers are produced in spring so there are no messy seeds to clean up. A medium-sized shade tree, it is perfect for the urban garden. Its bright, enduring fall color begins red and gradually turns brilliant purple red over a long period.

It exhibits significant tolerance to leafhopper, one of the major pests of landscape red maples. ... details
