Red Maple
The Red Maple tree, Acer rubrum, is a deciduous tree which will typically grow 40-60′ tall with a rounded to oval crown. In northern states, red maple usually occurs in wet bottomland, river flood plains, and wet woods, but in the south, it typically frequents drier, rocky upland areas. Leaves are shiny green above and pale green beneath, 3-5 lobed and 3-6″ across. Sap of this tree can be used to make a maple syrup that is inferior in quality to syrups made from the sugar maple.
