Sugar Maple
The sugar maple tree is one of a number of maple species commonly planted for its shade and autumn colors.
Growing to a height of 25 m (80 ft), the sugar maple is distinguished by medium-green leaves with silver undersides.
With the onset of autumn, the deeply lobed leaves turn a bright yellow.
