Silver Maple Tree - Potted Plant

All orders to California will be shipped bare root in accordance with state regulations.

With delicate silver on the underside of its leaves, the Silver Maple definitely shivers with even a light wind. The bark, too, is silver in color, especially when the tree is young. It's a fast grower, so it is popular with many landscapers. It is a rewarding tree if you have the space to accommodate its large size and wide-spreading root system.

The Silver Maple features 3"-6" leaves with 5 lobes separated by notably deep, narrow sinuses. Green on top and silvery underneath through spring and summer, they turn a pale yellow in the fall. It yields pairs of winged seed over 3" long that ripen in late spring. They are the largest seeds of all native maples.
