Lobed leaves are a bright green and develop fall colors ranging from yellow to orange to red. Small red flowers appear early in spring before the leaves unfold. Seeds are winged and ripen in late April to mid-June. Uses include horticultural practices as specimen tree, wood products, maple syrup. Do not plant near power lines.
