Just Say No to Abuse Declaring War on Terrorism. This book provides a comprehensive guide to the botany, habitat, distribution, and propagation of Maples. It also provides a complete guide to the species. Let's look at each topic in some detail.
Maple trees have several identifying features.
Read about the different forms the buds, bark, leaves, flowers, and seeds can take in Chapter 1. The accompanying illustrations will help you learn to identify these trees even in the winter. The distribution and type of habitats maple trees prefer is discussed in Chapter 2. It was interesting to learn that these trees are totally absent south of the equator with the exception of a single species. I am grateful that the author mentions temperatures when discussing the geographical regions where Maples are found.
