Acer rubrum, Red Maple - Beautiful in Every Season
One of the most beloved trees of wet forests - Red Maple - is also one of the nicest yard trees we can have, even in uplands. Here are photos from Saturday of pistillate (female) flowers, staminate (male) flowers, and from last October, autumn leaves. Photos from Chamberlain Lake and Ambler Flatwoods nature preserves in northern Indiana.

Hi Keith -- how did you get the red color to "pop" in those photos? Beautiful.
I love a mesic forest with red maple understory.
