The Acer Platanoides is commonly known
as the Norway Maple. It is a deciduous tree growing to 65 to 100
feet tall with a trunk up to 5 feet in diameter, and a broad, rounded crown.
The bark is grey-brown and shallowly grooved;
unlike many other maples, mature trees do not tend to develop a shaggy
bark. The shoots are green at first, soon becoming pale brown; the winter
buds are shiny red-brown.
The Norway Maple's leaves are opposite,
palmately lobed with five lobes, 2.75 to 5.50 inches long and 3 to 8 inches
(rarely 10 inches) across; the lobes each bear one to three side teeth,
and an otherwise smooth margin. The leaf petiole is 3 to 8 inches long,
and secretes a milky juice when broken.
The autumn color is usually yellow, occasionally
orange-red. The flowers are in corymbs of 15 to 30 together, yellow to
yellow-green with five sepals and five petals 1/10th to 1/15th of an inch
long; flowering occurs in early spring before the new leaves emerge.
The fruit is a double samara with two winged
seeds, the seeds are disc-shaped, strongly flattened, 1/5th to 1/3rd of
an inch, 1/3rd of an inch across and 1/10th of an inch thick. The wings
are 1 to 2 inches long, widely spread, approaching a 180° angle. It typically
produces a large quantity of viable seeds.
The Norway Maple is not particularly long-lived,
with a maximum age of around 250 years. It is a species of maple native
to eastern and central Europe and southwest Asia, from France east to Russia,
north to southern Scandinavia and southeast to northern Iran.
