Can You Grow Maple Trees In Florida?
Two species of maple trees actually grow well in Florida. Many Northerners relocate to the Sunshine State and miss their sugar maple trees. The next best options: the native red maple (Acer rubrum) and the Florida maple (Acer saccharum subsp. floridanum).
The native red maple loves growing in wet areas. They offer vibrant red fall leaves in the fall and gorgeous red flowers in the spring. Meanwhile, the Florida maple offers muted orange and yellow leaves. Some people consider the Florida maple a subspecies of the sugar maple from the North. Others disagree. This taxonomic question remains fairly unresolved, but it can bring happiness to our immigrants from the north to stick with the idea that these beautiful trees are a subspecies of the sugar maple they grew up around.
The Japanese maple grows alright in Northern Florida, but doesn’t grow so well in this area.
