One
of the most common types of maple trees is the sugar maple
tree. The sugar maple tree grows throughout most of the western
and northwestern United States. The leaves are five lobed,
with three primary veins running down the three largest lobes.
Sugar maple trees will grow to a height of from seventy to
ninety feet, but some are known to have reached a hundred
or more feet at maturity.
Other
types of maple trees are the Japanese maple trees. These types
of maple trees come in many different sizes, and are primarily
used for their ornamental qualities. One of the Japanese types
of maple trees, the red Japanese maple tree, has bright red
foliage in the spring, and bright red leaves in the fall.
It is one of the most commonly used ornamental trees in the
world. The normal Japanese maple tree has green foliage in
the spring and obtains a lovely crimson foliage in the autumn
months.
