Red Maple
Description
The Red Maple is one of the most common and adaptable deciduous trees in North America, prized for its vibrant scarlet foliage in autumn. It is often used as a fast growing shade tree in landscapes and is known as the "swamp maple" for its ability to thrive in wetter conditions. It features 3 to 5 lobed leaves with sharp "V" shaped notches and toothed edges. While leaves are green in summer, the tree earns its name through its red flowers, twigs, buds, and brilliant fall foliage. Prefers full sun for the best fall colour but will tolerate part shade.
