Trident Maple 15 Gallon Container

Trident Maple – 15 Gallon Container

The Trident Maple (Acer buergerianum) is a beautiful, compact deciduous tree known for its unique three-lobed leaves, smooth exfoliating bark, and brilliant fall color. A favorite for urban landscapes and residential yards alike, the Trident Maple combines year-round visual interest with toughness and adaptability.

In this 15-gallon container, the Trident Maple is well-rooted and landscape-ready, offering quick establishment and strong early growth. During the growing season, its dark green foliage creates a clean, refined canopy. Come autumn, the leaves turn vivid shades of red, orange, and yellow, putting on a vibrant fall show.

Its modest mature size and strong branching structure make it ideal for smaller yards, patios, and street plantings. It is also highly adaptable—tolerating heat, compacted soil, and urban environments—making it one of the best low-maintenance shade trees available.
