The leaves on my two maple trees are turning red in June. This is the second year in a row this has happened. Not sure what type of maple trees they are.
The trees were planted in June 2023.

Good Morning Roger,
Thank you for contacting the U of M Extension Service.
It sounds like your trees were newly planted in 2023. It would be important to know what variety of maple these are so you could judge when the leaves would turn color.
Did you plant the trees or a landscaper? Can you find out what variety of maple you have? If this is the second year in your yard, and the second year the leaves have turned color, maybe they are supposed to? https://extension.umn.edu/trees-and-shrubs/red-maple
