Acer saccharinum, commonly known as silver maple, creek maple, silverleaf maple, soft maple, large maple, water maple, swamp maple, or white maple, is a species of maple native to the eastern and central United States and southeastern Canada
A relatively fast-growing deciduous tree, commonly reaching a height of 15–25 m (49–82 ft), exceptionally 35 m (115 ft). Its spread will generally be 11–15 m (3
6–49 ft) wide. A 10-year-old sapling will stand about 8 m (26 ft) tall.
It is often found along waterways and in wetlands, leading to the colloquial name "water maple". It is a highly adaptable tree, although it has higher sunlight requirements than other maple trees.
The leaves are simple and palmately veined, 8–16 cm (3 1⁄4–6 1⁄4 in) long and 6–12 cm (2 1⁄4–4 3⁄4 in) broad, with deep angular notches between the five lobes. The 5–12 cm (2–4 3⁄4 in) long, slender stalks of the leaves mean that even a light breeze can produce a striking effect as the downy silver undersides of the leaves are exposed.

Silver maple and its close cousin red maple are the only Acer species which produce their fruit crop in spring instead of fall. The seeds of both trees have no epigeal dormancy and will germinate immediately. Seed production begins at 11 years of age and large crops are produced most years
PACKAGING / SHIPPING INFO:
We are a certified plant dealer. Goal is plant survival / customer satisfaction. Healthy, live plants only are shipped however they are native plants and may have a few nibbles on leaves. Received prior to treatment. That will not harm the plants. Most plants will naturally experience temporary wilting of leaves from transplanting. Keep moist and place in indirect light until they fully revive or upon arrival plant in permanent location per your choice. They will either revive pretty quickly or in some cases depending on species, go dormant for rest of season and spring back their next growing season.
In fall - early spring, they will be dormant without leaves or browning
as they prepare to drop.
