Bower & Branch Landscape Design Tip:

Give this maple full sun for the best canopy density and the strongest fall color. Water regularly during establishment, then transition to deep watering during prolonged dry stretches. Add mulch in a wide ring around the base to protect roots and hold moisture, keeping mulch away from the trunk. Prune lightly while the tree is young to maintain a strong central leader and balanced branching. If your landscape needs a shade tree with a more streamlined profile, Green Column is a beautiful way to get the benefits of a maple without the sprawl.

Why Plant Green Column Black Maple?

Green Column Black Maple brings the strength and beauty of a classic maple, with a slimmer silhouette that fits modern landscapes. It offers dense green foliage through summer for deep, comfortable shade, then finishes the season with a warm fall show that turns heads in glowing yellows and golden tones. This is a tree with presence, but it knows how to mind its manners. With its upright form and reliable structure, it’s a smart choice for homeowners who want the look of a big shade tree but need something that stays more vertical. Plant it once and it becomes the quiet backbone of the landscape for decades.

How to use Green Column Black Maple in the landscape?

Use Green Column Black Maple where you want a strong vertical statement and dependable shade without a wide-spreading canopy. It works beautifully along driveways, near patios, and in narrower side yards where space matters. Plant it in a row to create a formal avenue effect, or use it as a single specimen to add height and structure to a lawn or large planting bed. Its upright habit also makes it an excellent street tree, providing shade and seasonal color while maintaining a clean, refined footprint.

How Does Shipping Work?

Bower & Branch Trees, the real BIG trees, don’t fit in a box! Our big trees, sizes XL and bigger, require expert delivery and care, that means our extra-large trees are shipped on Bower & Branch trucks. We are the only ones who know how to ship our big and bigger trees and plants with tender loving care. We deliver your trees and plants directly to you.

*For Big trees and Shrubs, Size XL and bigger: Review our Seasonal Shipping Timelines and Policy here.

Your trees and plants are grown across the United States at various Bower & Branch Growers. Depending on your location, your plant orders may be shipped from various locations. Please expect orders with multiple items to be delivered over a number of days as a result. Orders made up of numerous items or selections will not arrive at your home on the same day.

Shipping Delays:

From time to time, Bower & Branch Growers may determine to delay order shipment based on various factors for plant health. Weather in your region, as well as, where your plants are grown, is always considered when shipping. Extreme weather conditions may delay some or all of your order. Bower & Branch allows our Growers to make final shipping decisions based solely to benefit your trees and plants’ health and success.

How Does Sizing Work?

The size of our trees have nothing to do with the container size like you may find elsewhere–big doesn't mean just height - it’s also vigor, age, and overall health. Other online retailers are going to tell you that a plant is a seven gallon, that means nothing to your tree or plant (or you.)

Our trees for sale online are graded on large, x-large, and even bigger sizes. This is because our trees are sized by their age—the higher the letter, the more mature the tree. The age determines the trees’ overall height, size of the trunk and the overall branch density.

All of these characteristics are what you should be looking for when choosing a tree for immediate impact and instant curb appeal. Our extra-large tree and plant sizes are sure to wow you and your neighbors!
