Great tree!
Reviewed By: Carol D. (Vidor, Texas)
So far this year, I have purchased 4 of these trees! All are doing very well....started leafing out less than a week after they were planted! Will be purchasing 2 more soon! We live in the area of Texas that was ravaged by the hurricane and we lost many trees. These will be a welcome to my yard. Great tree that will add value and beauty for years to come!

Scarlet Maple!
Reviewed By: Anita Exum (Plant City, Florida)
Well...this is a follow up of my previous reviews. Gurney's did send me a replacement from the first tree not producing. My replacement tree is doing very well; full of leaves. By amazement the first tree after weeks of watering finally sprouted leaves. The first tree doesn't have as many leaves as the replacement does. But I believe they will do very well. I will see if they hold up to hurricane winds and follow up at a later date. The key is water, water, and continue watering.
