We just planted a maple tree. (about a ten foot tall Autumn Blaze to be exact) I know you have to water it a lot, but are there any tips out there? Any fertilizer or??? Thanks!

I would suggest you check with where you bought it from, they should know what aftercare to do. It's hard to really say what kind of fertilizer or even if you should fertilize it because the ground is so different in every area.

I would suggest wrapping something around the bark on the bottom of the tree to keep rodents from chewing on it.

Good luck, although most trees of that size don't need any luck they usally grow pretty well.
