Autumn Flame is the first Red Maple to color in the fall and one of the hardiest. It reliably produces a brilliant red, although its color doesn't hold as long as Red Sunset, which colors about a week later. Slower growing with smaller leaves than most, Autumn Flame produces a very symmetrical, rounded crown.
