Maples

Hello
Can someone tell me, What is the difference between an Autumn Blaze Maple and a Scarlet red (Acer rebrum).
Thanks

I think they're both cultivars of a hybrid cross between red maple and silver maple. (Acer x fremanii). Both were developed for a richer, more consistent fall color and oval crown. Autumn Blaze is a bit taller at fifty feet compared to forty feet for Scarlet.
