Silver Maple Live Stakes 

Silver Maple Live Stakes, Acer saccharinum, or the silver maple live stakes, are a deciduous American native tree that grows in almost every USDA growing zone. TN Nursery offers silver maple live stakes as an alternative for customers who invest in large-scale landscape or reforestation efforts. 

Landscapers, conservationists, and gardeners all love the silver maple tree for its rapid growth, stately size, and abundant foliage and shade. It thrives in either a full or partially sunny site. 

Silver maple live stakes mature into a resilient native tree. They are compaction-tolerant, cold-tolerant, heat-tolerant, drought-tolerant, disease-resistant, and pest-resistant. They love high-moisture soil, even wet clay, that can hinder the development of less hardy trees. 

What Are Silver Maple Live Stakes? 

Live stakes refer to a propagation technique in which a horticulturist or arborist removes a tree branch during winter dormancy. These cuttings are the silver maple live stakes. After the spring thaw, the stake must go into its permanent new home as soon as possible. The live stakes will sprout roots there, strengthening and growing into a tree. 

Silver Maple Live Stakes Require Very Little Care 

Silver maple live stakes demand heavy moisture but dislike having wet feet. In the native forest, this species grows best next to marshes, alongside riverbeds, and in flood zones. Despite a penchant for moisture, this resilient tree will become drought-tolerant as it matures. 

Silver maple live stakes have a second need--a generous helping of woody organic materials upon planting. Please give them a big scoop of peat moss, woody mulch, or another nitrogen-rich fertilizer or compost. 

Besides these two requests, your silver maple live stakes need little else from you. 

Silver Maple Live Stakes Will Become a Stunning Tree 

Silver maple live stakes can grow up to six feet per growing season. Although it's challenging to envision, let's look at the future of your life's stakes.

Those silver maple live stakes can eventually reach around eighty feet and feature a dense, round canopy that provides plentiful shade.

After you grow your silver maple live stakes, you'll also see where it gets its common name from--the silvery white underside of the emerald green, five-lobed leaves.
