Emerald Queen Norway Maple
A very widely planted maple, with good, broadly oval structure. It has attractive dark green leaves that turn a golden yellow in the Fall. It is a moderately fast growing tree that can live to 100 years. It can be paired with the crimson-leaved Crimson King or Royal Red maples to obtain contrasting color from trees of largely same size and shape. Tolerant of a wide range of soils and conditions. A clear winner.
