The red maple (Acer rubrum) is a highly adaptable tree found in wet and dry areas, sun and shade, a wide range of soil pH, and acting as an early, mid, and even late-succession forest species. The foliage is a source of food for many insects. As one of the earliest-blooming native trees, its flowers are an important source of food for pollinators.
Red maple is a fast-growing, medium-sized tree, and is a popular choice for erosion control as well as home landscaping. It is noted for its vibrant red fall foliage.
