Our neighbor's Red Maple tree is beautiful (I think it's a Red Maple) it's red anyway. I liked how the sun was shining through giving me a nice little sun burst.
It is a red maple. looks just like ours. a young red maple tree turns darker je older it gets. later in the fall the leaves turn lighter and get a more copper tone shade. we planted ours roughly 12-14 years ago. it replaced a blue spruce which became too large in front of the house and now this tree is almost as big. love how the sun lit up the tree and the sunburst are lovely.
