Description
Maple, Princeton Gold is a stunning shade tree that stands out with its brilliant golden-yellow foliage, bringing a fresh splash of color to the landscape from spring through fall. Unlike traditional green maples, this variety emerges with vivid yellow leaves that hold their bright hue throughout the growing season, adding striking contrast against deeper green trees. Its strong, upright form and tidy branching structure make it a standout choice for residential yards, streetscapes, and large landscape spaces. In autumn, the foliage deepens into a rich golden tone, providing a bold seasonal display. With its luminous color, polished appearance, and reliable shade, this maple is a magnificent addition to any setting.

General Care

  • Sunlight: Prefers full sun
  • Watering: Once established, water occasionally, ensuring soil remains moderately moist but well-drained
  • Mulching: Apply a 2–3 inch layer of mulch to retain moisture and regulate soil temperature
  • Pruning: Prune in late winter or early spring if shaping is needed, avoiding excessive cuts to preserve its natural form

With its brilliant golden foliage, grand stature, and year-round interest, Maple, Princeton Gold is an inspiring choice for adding color, shade, and elegance to the landscape.
