Maple Tree Flowers

Normally associating beautiful ornamental flowering trees like Flowering Pears, Flowering Cherries, Red Buds, Tulip Trees, Dogwoods, etc with Spring, few People really stop to think much about flowers on regular "leafed" trees like Maples and Oaks and et al. Nevertheless, those trees do also flower in Springtime; usually before leaves are produced. Their flowers may not be as flashy as ornamental flowering trees, but if you take the time to notice them, their flowers can be interesting. Maple tree flowers are quite small. By the time that they get noticed, they may be borne in clusters at the end of a long dangling flower stalk (pedicel). Colors will vary depending on the species of maple tree.

For most people, these flowers often go totally unnoticed.
However, after flowering, maple trees will then produce the familiar helicopter seeds that children love, but which can be an annoyance for adults who have to sweep up the mess throughout the summer and fall. At that point, the results from the flowers from maple trees definitely get noticed!!!

Enjoy early Spring with me; plus the below images of Maple Tree Flowers.
