Why it rocks:
Introducing State Street™ Maple, an exceptional shade tree from Chicagoland Grows®, selected by The Morton Arboretum in Lisle, IL. This tree presents a stunning contrast with its rugged, deeply grooved bark and appealing satin green leaves. In the fall, its lush canopy transitions from a cool medium green to a vibrant yellow. As it grows, State Street™ Maple develops strong, upright branches that create a rounded canopy. This high-performing tree is quickly becoming a preferred choice for urban environments. It thrives in conditions where other trees may struggle, demonstrating resilience against pests and diseases, along with impressive cold hardiness. Consider incorporating this distinctive tree into your landscape to enjoy its generous shade and beauty!
Where to put it:
State Street™ Maple excels in urban environments, including city parkways, expansive medians, and in shopping centers. In residential settings, it's best to plant this tree in larger areas of your landscape so that its shade and beauty can be appreciated for many years. Additionally, it should be positioned at least 15 feet away from buildings to accommodate its full mature spread.
What it needs:
State Street™ Maple thrives in full sun to partial shade and is resistant to urban pollution. This sturdy tree can withstand a range of conditions, such as salt spray, heat, and drought. It is best to avoid areas with compacted soils. To promote a strong root system, please follow our tree care guidelines during the initial growing seasons.
