Blood Moon® Trident Maple
A wonderful new addition to the Trident Maple cultivars, exclusive to Bold Spring. This dense, compact maple has a pyramidal habit that rounds with age. Blood Moon® gives a unique show throughout the growing season - not only does the new spring foliage emerges bright red, but the new growth emerges orange to red all throughout the summer finally maturing to a striking dark green.
