Matador Maple

Acer x freemanii 'Bailston'

Matador Maple stuns in the fall with deep red leaves. An adaptable tree with an upright, symmetrical form, Matador gains its fall color a bit later than other maples and holds its leaves longer. It is an excellent choice for landscapes that need a shade tree with some impressive fall interest.
