Autumn Blaze spacing
Comments (3)old1800home: Autumn Blaze maples grow fast: Height: 50' - 60'; Spread: 30' - 40' In an earlier post about spacing Autumn Blaze maples, it was suggested that the trees be spaced about 25' apart. (see link below) bullthistle: The OP's question was about how to space Autumn Blaze maples. You recommended 75 feet apart, although the trees grow about 30 feet wide. At the bottom of your answer you added a link to your blog, "Propagating Perennials." I went to the blog and searched for information about maples - the search revealed nothing. I'm confused. When people add "a link that might be useful," that link provides additional information about the subject. Why do you add links to your blog when it does not include information that would help the person who asked the question?

Comments (4)So what is the answer? Mine is doing the same, SW side, leaves on that side start turning orange yellow in august! White mushroom shelf stuff growing in small places. My neighbor one street over has the same tree. Our houses face the same direction and tree is planted same place. Theirs's is still green. I don't understand. Autumn blaze maples do not always do this. What've I've read is, yeah, it's a goner. But WHAT causes it and WHAT will prevent it. I see plenty of them healthy. Even the garden stores look and say they don't know. Someone has to know. Any ideas would be great or where to go? I know the tree was planted TOO high above ground ---8". So I did infill that with good dirt around 2019 to level it. Perhaps the roots grew up too long since they planted it too high above the soil and just threw mulch on it to hide it. Trees are so expensive to replace. This has been going on for 2.5 years of 4.5 that it's been planted. Soil seems to be fine when checked too....See MoreDoes this Autumn Blaze Maple need to be taken down?
Comments (3)sun scald is more of an issue with babe trees with immature bark ... will this fall on anything important.. or is it out in a field ... frankly.. you need to hire an isa certified tree surgeon.. and get an onsite inspection ... peace of mind often costs a few dollars .. and is usually worth it ... add you big city name to the search and away you go: https://duckduckgo.com/?q=isa+certified+arborist&t=ffcm&ia=web that said.. if its out in the field.. it could take 10 or 20 years to become a problem .. and who cares if it wont hurt anything... btw: with that width of trunk... im thinking its much more than 10 years old ... but that really doesnt matter regarding the above .... ken...See Morelaceyvail 6A, WV
