- Like most maple trees, October Glory Maples do have helicopter seeds that fall each autumn. Samara seeds have a unique shape that causes them to twirl and flutter in the wind when they fall, hence the nickname. While they can be a bit of a chore to rake up each fall, theyre hours of entertainment for the youth.
- This variety of maple tree grows 40 to 50 feet tall with a 25 to 35 foot wide branch spread. The October Glory red maple growth rate is also extremely fast. One will grow 1 to 2 feet per year until it becomes a mature tree. The October Glory maple size makes it an excellent front yard and shade tree to enhance curb appeal.
- Start by finding a spot to plant your tree. The October Glory maple is tolerant to a wide range of soil types but prefers slightly acidic soil and moist soil conditions along with partial shade to full sun. Try to find soil that drains well.
- Begin the planting process by digging a hole about twice the size of the trees root ball. Lower the plant into the hole so that the roots will be just below the surface of the dirt. Spread the roots and refill the hole with soil. Once planted, water your October Glory maple tree regularly until its roots are established.
- Most maple trees will do well with a light annual pruning to cut away the rotten, decayed, and broken branches. This process will ensure the longevity of a trees health. In addition to dying branches, also keep an eye on branches that intersect with one another and branches that are especially low on the tree. Removing these branches will allow you to shape the crown of your tree
- Be sure to water well the first year of planting to establish the October Glory maple tree root system. Once established, the tree is drought tolerant and relatively resistant to pests and disease. October Glories grow well over most of the United States in USDA growing zones 3-9.
- This fast growing trees improved heat tolerance and dependable red fall color make this tree one of the most popular selections of red maples available. The red foliage is shockingly noticeable!

Good tree buying experience

The company did good job to make sure the tree did not dry out during hot summer shipping. It started growing immediately after planting.

Healthy tree
6 years ago
Ordered this tree 2 weeks ago and picked it up today. I did ship to store and was very happy with the way it all worked. The tree was extremely well boxed and healthy. In a pot with moist dirt and staked twice so it wouldn’t move in shipping. The only thing I worry about is there was no tag on the tree do I hope it’s the right variety!
Yes, I recommend this product.
