Acer saccharum 'Green Mountain' Sugar Maple
‘Green Mountain’ is a popular and well-established cultivar that typically grows 40-60’ tall in cultivation. It has a broad pyramidal form. It is noted for its rapid growth rate, straight central trunk branching to a narrow ovate head, thickened and strong crotches, thick deep green foliage and resistance to leaf hoppers and leaf scorch. Deeply cut, leathery, dark green leaves (each to 6” long and 8” wide) turn excellent shades of orange and scarlet in fall. - Bachman
