I appreciate your detailed information on the various maples. As I look out my family room window, I can see either black or sugar maples and I know that I have red maples because of the spring seeds. We have plenty of silver maples growing on the creek banks and some on the golf courses. I will consult with your site next spring to try and sort out my black and sugar maples. One thing that I did not see on your color chart page was reference to brilliant yellow fall colors. My dad had a native maple that was a brilliant yellow (Monroe County, Indiana).

I was looking for a range map of the genus Acer. Specifically, I am interested in finding out of Maple trees are native to the British Isles or if they are cultivated there as ornamentals. Could you help me locate this information?
Many thanks

We plan to plan a maple tree in a large pot outdoors. It is very small at present, by planning in a pot will it still grow but the pot stunt its growth?

I have two young maples and they are growing straight up and would like them to start to grow more round or at least branch out. How do I prune them to make them more round. Thank you.

My tree is 4 years old and has grown wonderfully but the lower branches are very long and extend far from the trunk. I think it would be good to cut them off. What time of year should this be done?
Thank you.

Subject: Red Leaf Maple Male or Female
Hello,
We have 2 red leaf maple trees. The one in the front yard has "fruit" on it and the one in the back yard has no "fruit" on it. Is one a female and the other a male? I saw a comment similar to this one but can't see the answer to the question. Thanks for your help.

Subject: High Nitrogen fertilizer stakes for maple trees
I've been told by a tree arborist that I need to use fertlizer stakes with 30% nitrogen around a silver maple that has problems. Do you sell anything like this or can you offer other suggestions for this type of treatment?

Subject: Trident Maples
I have several Trident Maples and would like to know if they are dangerous to horses? Does anyone have any idea? I know these trees are a hybrid and don't have all the same qualities as a true Red Maple but with the Acer in the name I think they probably are poisonous to horses.
Thank you!

Hello. In Mexico, maple trees are of difficult availability, but I am so glad because recently got 4 small ones. I´m trying to determine their right variety, think they are acer rubrum but I´d like to know if anyone may help me to be sure óf that.

Subject: Limbs following of tree
In the last three weeks I have had two large limbs fall off my maple tree. The tree is very unique since the tree trunk is curved. I had an aborist look at the tree last year due to a brown discoraltion on the truck. He said it was fine. I think the harsh winter and a few weeks of extreme heat has effected the tree. The limbs were very brittle. How do I find out if it is dying? Thanks
