Well, I'm no expert but I am a maple lover. The Sugar Maple, from what I know, doesn't have a whole lot of "cons". Except a lot of leaf cleanup after they drop for the year. I think however, that a lot of people get the Silver Leaf and Sugar Maple mixed up. If it's the silver leaf, it is probably one of the weakest of the maples.
I've had my eye on a nice sugar maple probably about 28" DBH, tall and straight, probably about 30ft to the lowest limbs or so.... on my sister's property and I finally got an alaskan mill for christmas, but todays I was out looking around and I noticed about 1/2 way up from the ground to the lower limbs there is a woodpecker hole about 6" high ...
I have a sugar maple thats about 30-34" across, and it has some limbs off to the side i would like to prune to gain better access under the tree. The limbs are about 8 to 10 across. Is a tree ever too large to prune? Is there a rule about how much % of branches can be removed with out...
Tap root trees (oak, sugar maple) 1.5 times that. If the OP is in love with maples, I'd suggest a tree form amur maple, or Hot Wings tartarian maple. Also many maples are subject to aphids, which excrete sticky honey-dew, which then gets sooty mold.
The bark is not what I would expect to see for a sugar maple, but I have learned that regional variances together with species variances are huge on many trees. These trees also look like they might have suffered storm damage in the past. Your tree with the splitting bark looks like it comes down from a co-dom up high.
I have sugar maple that I planted about 16 years ago. I put it 17 ft from the back of the house. I now have substantial lateral root growth at and just below the ground surface. They have lifted the patio stones behind the house and are growing toward the back of the house and under the...
Leaf shape very similar to sugar maple but more ornate. A milky sap appears when the leaf is broken off of stem at the petiole. This sap is not found in sugar maple leaves and distinguishes the two species. Sugar maple leaves and bark Sugar Maple Acer saccharum The tree attains a height of more than 100 feet and a diameter of 3 feet or more.
Here is a quick update on the Sugar Maple. All I asked for was the 8' trunk, all the upper branches another wood burner took. Wow this was a big a$$ tree so after cutting the trunk up into 5 pieces I got 3 loaded on my manure spreader trailer and headed for home.
Hello All, I have a Sugar Maple that I will be picking up from a tree farm here next week. They are keeping it for a week after digging it out and packing the root ball in burlap to make sure it doesnt go into shock, I guess Anyway my question is how from the septic tank is a safe distance with a sugar maple? From what Ive seen online they have ...
See images below. Tree is probably 20 (?) years old. Along a gravel road so no road-salt in winter. Some of the branches on the NE side of the tree seemed to die last summer. Some leafed out this year (not all, some), but the leaves are dying off (red rectangle). Some of the tips seem to be growing little leaves (red arrow) but sparse.
