Among the most handsome of maples, these impressive trees host a variety of moss, lichens and Licorice Ferns on their very bark, adding to their incredible beauty.

These rapidly growing maples are hardy from USDA 7-10 and grow along the Pacific coast to the west side of the Cascades and Sierra Nevada mountains. At maturity, they can reach 100,' with a 50' spread. The leaves reach 1' in diameter and blanket the forest in brilliant yellows and golds when they fall. Come spring and the branches will be laden with creamy yellow flowers.

Native plants such as Salal (Gaultheria shallon), Oregon Grape (Berberis) and Sword Fern (Polystichum munitum) work well for under story plantings.

Seed collection is easy and fun to do as the seeds are large in comparison.
