Product Details
Overview & Specifications
Autumn Blaze Freeman Maple Tree, Acer freemanii 'Autumn Blaze'
Few deciduous trees command a landscape the way Autumn Blaze does. A refined hybrid of Red and Silver Maple, it delivers a broad, symmetrical canopy, rapid structural presence, and an autumn foliage display, intense red-orange, that defines the season on prestige properties.
Why Autumn Blaze Freeman Maple
Exceptional Autumn Colour: Foliage transitions to vivid red-orange each autumn, creating a seasonal focal point of genuine visual weight.
Rapid Canopy Development: Grows up to 1.5m per year, establishing shade and structure well ahead of standard deciduous selections.
Structural Integrity: Inherits strong branch architecture from its Red Maple parent, performing reliably in wind-exposed and urban environments.
Climate Adaptability: Frost-hardy and drought-tolerant once established; performs across a wide range of Australian cool to temperate climates.
Long-Term Asset: A long-lived specimen that matures into a commanding landscape feature, adding measurable value to any property.
Ideal Applications
Avenue Planting: Planted in rows along driveways or boulevards, uniform canopy form creates a disciplined, high-impact corridor.
Canopy Shade Tree: Scale and density make it the professional's choice for cooling large open areas on residential and commercial projects.
Specimen Feature: Positioned as a standalone element, autumn colour and symmetrical form deliver year-round architectural interest.
Windbreak and Screening: Rapid vertical growth and full canopy development provide effective seasonal screening and wind mitigation on exposed sites.
Specimen & Installation
Spacing (feature/avenue): 8–12m
