Acer Freemanii ’Celzam’
Celebration® Maple is a beautiful and dependable shade tree that thrives in both urban and residential settings. Slightly narrower than other Freeman Maple cultivars, it still offers a full, oval canopy—though it’s not as upright as trees like Crimson Spire™ Oak or Armstrong Maple. It features improved structure compared to Autumn Blaze® Maple, with more open branch angles and a stronger, well-defined central leader.
Brilliant fall color in vibrant shades of yellow, orange, and red
Broad, oval canopy provides dense, cooling shade
Better branching structure than Autumn Blaze®, with a strong central leader
Nearly seedless and low maintenance
Adaptable to many soil types and tough growing conditions
Plant at least 15 feet from buildings to allow space for mature growth
With its strong form and vibrant seasonal color, Celebration® Maple is a standout choice for front yards, backyards, and parkways. Follow our tree care guidelines in the early years to ensure healthy establishment and long-term success.
