Low maintenance & easy to grow
Box Elder Trees is a fast-growing, long-living North American native species and member of the maple family. It is a hardy species that grows in the entire contiguous United States.
Because it is so adaptable to a wide temperature range, it is a favorite for gardeners and landscapers throughout the U.S. It plays a prominent role in parks, is installed along boulevards and sidewalks, and is used as a shade tree in backyards.
Some other common names for Acer Negundo are the following:

When you plant it, ensure you find a full sunshine location. It also needs well-draining but moist soil; during an extended drought, you must provide about one to two inches of water per week.
As it expends a lot of energy with its quick growth pattern of two to three additional feet per year, so add organic compost or fertilizer at least twice yearly to keep it well-fed. Before the snow flies, it should receive an insulating cover of an inch or two of hardwood mulch in the coldest zones.
The gardener only needs to do essential maintenance to maintain it.
It is a middle-sized type, generally reaching a mature height of around fifty feet and a forty-foot canopy width. The trunk is upright and light to medium brown.
The leaves of the Box Elder Trees are opposite on the brown stems, oval, serrated, and with lobes. The color is bright green on top and a bit lighter underneath. In late spring, they have tiny cream-yellow flowers; however, the size is so small they are almost unnoticeable.
T.N. Nursery recommends the box elder tree for anyone who wants a fast-growing, lovely shade type.
