Hi Marguerite... no the one that is most used to make syrup is the Acer saccharum... I used to help my Dad make maple syrup...the pay wasn't the greatest but the fringe benefits were delicious!!

Awww...you caught me...this is a pic from my Archives..lol. it was early autumn last year... from what you see in the picture it went a brilliant orangey red, It lit up the garden even on dull days... and when the leaves fell I didn't rake them...just left them to protect my plants...and raked in the spring when the soil needed to be exposed to warm up...
