The maple is one of North America's best-loved deciduous trees. Some of the varieties, maples are used for construction or in the making of furniture. The sap of sugar maples is the only ingredient in maple syrup, that delicious syrup produced in Ontario, Quebec and New England every spring. Maples are also a major tourist attraction, their breath-taking leaves attracting visitors to eastern North America every fall. A single maple leaf is even the centerpiece of Canada's national flag.
For the landscaper, there are a wide variety of maples to choose from depending on climate and soil conditions. Whatever your choice, with proper care, your maples will be a source of pleasure for decades to come. |
