Hot Wings Maple
What: Hot Wings Maple (Acer tataricum ‘GarAnn’) is a spectacular smaller accent tree perfect for home landscapes. It showcases blazing cherry red samaras in late summer and dark green lobed leaves that transform into stunning shades of yellow, orange, and red in fall. This Tatarian Maple variety offers greater tolerance to drought and alkaline conditions than the similar Amur maple.
Best use: Ideal as a focal point or accent tree in smaller garden spaces. It can be planted in masses for greater visual impact or used in hedges and screening applications where its compact size and ornamental features create year-round interest.
