    Autumn Blaze" trees spread their roots horizontally in search of ample nutrients and moisture from the surrounding soil. If you plant the trees too close to one another, the roots compete for natural resources -- you eventually have one or more maples suffering from growth stunting, since they cannot find enough nourishment. If possible, space the trees between 40 and 50 feet apart for the best root and canopy spacing. In addition, the maples' stability in the soil may also be compromised with improper spacing -- they need strong and deep roots to remain upright during gusty days.
