This 1600-seed bulk pack of Trident Maple (Acer buergerianum) is ideal for nurseries, large-scale bonsai production, reforestation-style plantings, and ornamental landscape projects.

Native to China, Korea, and Japan, Trident Maple is a small to medium deciduous tree that typically grows 20–30 feet tall with a rounded crown. Its glossy, triangular three-lobed leaves remain deep green during the growing season before turning striking shades of dark red and orange in autumn.

In spring (April–May), subtle greenish-yellow flowers bloom, followed by winged samaras that mature in fall. Mature specimens develop attractive exfoliating bark, adding winter interest and texture. Highly prized in bonsai culture, Trident Maple responds extremely well to pruning, shaping, and container growing.

A versatile and popular tree suitable for specimen plantings, shade, street use, screening, grouped plantings, and bonsai cultivation.
