The Legacy® Sugar Maple is a large, stately shade tree with a dense, oval to rounded canopy. Its dark green, glossy leaves provide excellent summer shade and turn a brilliant mix of yellow, orange, and red in the fall. This variety is drought-resistant once established and is known for its resistance to leaf tatter, making it an excellent choice for windy locations.

It is highly adaptable, tolerating various soil types and some shade, though it will develop its best fall color in full sun. Its strong structure and vibrant seasonal display make it a standout tree for yards, parks, and streetscapes.
