Planting Maple Trees That Don't Produce Helicopter Seeds

12/4/2019

It’s difficult not to adore maple trees when you think of their crisp yellow, red, and orange hues every autumn. However, the helicopter seeds that fall with their leaves are a hassle to clean up. You’ll be glad to know (if you didn’t know) that there are maple trees that don’t produce helicopter seeds. You can have your cake and eat it too!

Read this article and learn which seed-free maple tree will work well in your landscape.

Maple Trees Without Helicopter Seeds
For best results, select a maple tree within your plant hardiness zone. And while autumn is the top time to plant maples, spring is an excellent option as well.

Seedless Maple Trees
  • Firefall maple (zones 3-7): A cherry-red maple that can endure ice, snow, and harsh wind 
  • Celebration maple (zones 3-8): A tree with bright orange and yellow fall leaves that can deal with drought, frost, and storms
  • Northwood red maple (zones 3-9): A medium-size maple with primary fall color
  • Autumn fantasy maple (zones 3-9): A drought-tolerant, ruby-red maple 
  • Marmo maple (zones 3-9): A maroon-colored maple that can flourish in several types of soil  
  • Sun Valley maple (zones 4-7): A shady maple with a hot red fall canopy
  • Brandywine red maple (zones 4-8): A rapid-growing maple
  • Jamestown red maple (zones 4-8): A looming maple that can grow over 70 feet

Sienna Glen and Autumn Blaze Maple Trees
Sienna glen and autumn blaze maples do grow helicopter seeds. Though, many types are seedless, such as autumn fantasy and celebration maple trees.

Autumn Blaze vs. Sienna Glen Maple
There are numerous seedless selections of the autumn blaze and sienna glen maples. However, not all are seedless. Do your research or contact York PA Tree Service before purchasing.

Both trees have fantastic fall colors, but there are a couple of differences between the autumn glaze and sienna glen maple.
  • Sienna glen maple trees display fall color sooner than autumn blaze maples. Additionally, in the wintertime, sienna glen manages wind, snow, and ice way better than autumn blaze. 
  • Autumn blaze maples are the ones you want for a fast addition to your outdoor space that’s simple to manage. They’re very fast growers and are usually not affected by diseases or pests.
