Acer rubrum 'Bowhall'

Common Name: Bowhall Red Maple

Acer rubrum ‘Bowhall’ is a narrow, columnar red maple selected for its strong central leader, tight branching, and excellent performance in confined spaces. It offers the toughness and adaptability of red maple with a space-efficient, upright form. Spring brings small red flowers, followed by medium green foliage that creates a dense vertical canopy through summer. In fall, ‘Bowhall’ develops bright orange-red to scarlet color, often coloring evenly from top to bottom. Its narrow habit helps minimize conflicts with sidewalks, buildings, and overhead lines. ‘Bowhall’ grows best in full sun to partial shade and adapts well to a wide range of soils, including moist or slightly compacted sites. It tolerates urban conditions better than many large shade trees.
