Bower & Branch Landscape Design Tip: 

Plant Ruby Slippers Amur Maple where the summer red samaras and fall color can catch the eye from a window, walkway, or seating area, then keep the base clean with a wide mulch ring and layer lower, calmer plants around it so the tree stays the star; dark evergreens, soft grasses, and low mounding shrubs make the red tones look even brighter, like the landscape put on lipstick and decided to be dramatic in the best way.
