It has a medium growth-rate and is a smaller variety of maple, reaching only about 35 feet tall with a spread of 20 feet. Brandywine is the perfect choice if you want the beauty of fall foliage but don't have the space needed for a larger tree. Brandywine is hardy in Zones 4-8.

How to Plant
STEP 1) First, decide on a planting location. Consider carefully what kind of sun, soil, and growing-space your tree or shrub will need.
STEP 2) Once you've located the perfect spot, the hole you are digging must be at least double the width and as deep as the root system you are planting.
STEP 3) Remove the plant from the pot and place the root ball in the hole. The top of the root system should be level with the ground. Before placing the tree or shrub in the hole, use your hands to gently break up the root system.
STEP 4) Once the plant is in place, backfill the hole with native soil and any leftover potting material.
STEP 5) Pack down the soil to eliminate any air pockets.
STEP 6) When finished, water thoroughly.
Care Guide

Maples prefer full sun or partial shade and may need to be staked when planted. Make sure to plant in an area where there is lots of room for the tree to grow. Create a 3-4 inch layer of mulch leaving room between the mulch and the tree's trunk. Water regularly after planting. Fertilize in spring and summer, and prune in late summer or early fall.

The tree arrived with no problems. It looks great and I am sure it will last a long time.

Thanks a lot for sending it to me.

I ordered two brandy wine maples. Upon opening the box I discovered that the tops of both maples were crushed. I got them in the ground the day they arrived. I had to cut off some of the damage on both maples, but I'm hoping for the best.

Excellent experience

Awesome Brandywine Maple. Ordered on a Monday, received that Friday! Planted Sunday! Unfortunately lost about 3 inches from top branch that broke in transit. But things happen while being transported. Highly recommend!
