#Acer 'Trompenburg' A nice contrast to all the spring greenery.

#Acer pseudoplatanus 'Brilliantissimum' Fully leafed out today in Southern Europe.

A very fine #Acer griseum at The Holden Arboretum, Ohio, USA.

#Acerpentaphyllum in Central Spain today (photo 1), and a few months ago. One of the last Maples to drop its leaves in autumn, often holding until mid-December. Also, one of the last ones to leaf out in spring, not before early May. #Maples #trees #Acer #botany #Sapindaceae

#Acer binzayedii: #EndangeredSpecies from cloud forests. The ecosystem has high hydrological value & contains many endemic plants. Ex situ #conservation in progress at @cuvallesudg Observations with #drone funded by @TheMapleSociety #BiodiversityDay2022

#Acer pentaphyllum is rare in cultivation and in its native China. This #maple is more vigorous and hardier than it is often assumed. It will make a fine small #tree, sometimes developing good autumn colours. Its foliage creates an airy texture similar to that of bamboo.

@mrjalmandoz Yes, the Spanish group visited Iturrarán and other nearby gardens and nurseries this weekend. Thank you for showing them Around! The tree in the photo is in Miraflores de la Sierra, Madrid, in the garden of Fran de la Mota (yours truly), Secretary of The Maple Society.

#Acer griseum brightening up a rainy day in Central Spain. A lovely #maple all seasons.

#Acer pseudoplatanus is often not thought of as having great #autumncolours. However, it can display excellent yellow tones. Here, the cultivar 'Brilliantissimum', which also has beautiful pink spring foliage. #Maples #Trees #Gardening

These #Acer palmatum and A. japonicum are doing remarkably well in #Houston, TX, USA. No leaf scorching despite being already mid-August. #JapaneseMaples #Maples #Heat #Trees #plants
