Hot Wings Tatarian Maple
Hot Wings tatarian maple is a beautiful, small ornamental tree. Its small size is well suited to home landscapes.
The slender branches form an upright oval canopy. Although the flowers are not noticeable, by midsummer brilliant red seed capsules (samaras) cover the tree. The samaras provide a spectacular show of color, persisting for about a month.
During the fall, the leaf colors range from yellow to orange-red. It is tolerant of alkaline soils. This tree was recommended by the Plant Select program for Colorado landscapes in 2007.
