This one is destined to become one of the great shade trees for Wyoming! This specimen tree does well in difficult soils, limited water and heavy wind. The growth rate is exceptional, often putting on 3 feet of new growth/year. The Sensation Maple is a native to Wyoming, but this one is a seedless male clone, thus it will not attract boxelder bugs and has magnificent red-orange autumn color. Make no mistake, this is a go-to shade tree that few have planted.
