Botanical nameAcer saccharum 'Green Mountain'

Acer saccharum ‘Green Mountain’ is a remarkable ornamental sugar maple, highly sought after for its brilliant green foliage during the growing season and its spectacular autumn coloration in vibrant orange, red, and yellow hues, which brings a colorful and structured presence to borders, pathways, or large gardens. Its elegant and well-proportioned pyramidal shape makes it an excellent choice as an accent tree, a specimen plant, or a structural element in residential or public landscapes. Very hardy and well-adapted to cold climates, this maple prefers sunny to partial shade exposure and fertile, moist, well-drained soil, where it thrives without particular demands. ‘Green Mountain’ combines seasonal color, harmonious form, and ease of maintenance to visually enrich any type of green space.
