Alpenglow® Hybrid Maple
Acer × sideboldianum ‘INAG-E61’ PP35081
Hybridized by Paul H. Halladin in Boring, Oregon.
Introduced by Iseli Nursery. Submitted by Iseli Nursery.
Alpenglow® is a red-leafed, upright hybrid maple that is hardy down to –30 F. In spring, merlot leaves dance on arching branches; translucent veins help them catch the light and glow. The deep red mellows to a burnished bronze in summer and finally turns to blazing orange and red in fall. A refined oval habit and sturdy branching make this a majestic centerpiece that you can rely on for a colorful show year after year. Our hybrid maples have proven to be resilient trees that can handle whatever challenges nature throws at them. ‘INAG-E61’ is a cross between Acer palmatum and Acer pseudosieboldianum. It originated from a tree breeding program started in 1997 with the goal of expanding the cold tolerance range of Japanese Maple trees to include zone 4. Grows to 15′ wide by 20′ tall. Zones 4a–8b.
Available as #6, #20, #15, and #24 containers from Iseli Nursery (Booth #19037).
