Silver Maple, Acer saccharinum, is a relatively fast-growing deciduous tree that can reach a height of 100 ft at maturity. Known for its adaptability, Silver Maples are most often found along waterways and in wetlands, leading to the common name "water maple". Silver Maples have brittle wood and are commonly damaged in storms. With invasive and shallow roots, Silver Maples should not be planted near utility lines (Water&Septic) or home foundations and side walks. Silver Maples are notorious for watersprouts and suckers if not pruned regularly and will often grow with multiple trunks. Despite these issues, Silver Maples are widely used as ornamental and shade trees because of their rapid growth, ease of propagation and transplanting, and tolerance of urban conditions.

Planting Instructions - Dig a hole three times the diameter of the root system, with a depth no deeper than the original soil line on trunk. Break up the soil to the finest consistency possible. Place plant in hole and fill, compacting the fill dirt. Water the plant heavily to seal soil around the roots and remove air pockets. Fertilize according to the recommendation of your local agriculture extension agents, or fertilize based on your own knowledge and experience.
