My builder uses Houzz Pro to plan the timeline and give detailed estimates and daily updates with photos of progress, and provide invoices at pre-agreed key points in the build. This made the whole experience much more efficient and stress-free.

Red Maples with breathtaking technicolor fall leaves?????

19 years ago

Hello to the group,

Can anyone on this forum tell me what are some of the new cultivars of Red Maples that have breathtaking technicolor fall leaves?

Which is better between the Autumn Blaze,Red sunset and October Glory for the Raleigh NC area?

Also is a Red Maple better for Zone 7 (Raleigh, NC) than a Sugar Maple? Which one would have the better fall color and the better chance of survival in the heat and humidity of NC?

Thanks for you input.
