Emerald Queen Norway Maple

The Emerald Queen Norway Maple is the perfect choice when you need a large tree for an urban location. It is incredibly tough and it can be relied on to handle that really tough place, with air and traffic pollution, drought and poor soil. It has a rounded crown and grows very quickly, soon reaching an attractive size and ultimately growing to 60 feet tall and 40 feet wide. Allow room for this when planting. The dark green leaves turn bold golden yellow in fall, and the yellow blooms on bare twigs in spring make a bright show.

• Super tough and reliable tree for urban settings
• Good dark-green foliage all summer
• Bright golden-yellow fall colors
• Attractive yellow blooms on bare twigs in spring
• Tolerates drought and urban pollution really well

Full sun or partial shade is best for your Emerald Queen Norway Maple. It grows in cold areas through zone 4, and survives in exposed and difficult locations. It grows in almost all soils, from occasionally flooded to dry, and from sand to clay and acid to alkaline. Once established it is drought resistant and although there can be leaf spots, these are not harmful. Generally free of pests. Some formative pruning of young trees is recommended.
