{Our Acer - Maple Trees}

Just this week our Acer Saccharum Marshall or Sugar Maple tree, was at its very best! So here I want to share some of its photos and also the Acer Palmatum Sango-Kaku that is in the wood garden, across the creek.

  • This is our Acer saccharum Marshall or Sugar Maple tree. The very tree for the maple syrup!
  • To the right, the yellow leaved tree is our Ginkgo biloba tree.
  • Pieter has repaired our wooden bridges and treated with wood preserving oil.


  • To the left is our Red Maple or Acer Rubrum. Two of our wooden bridges are visible here.


  • The above photo is taken three days before the rest, notice the change in color...
  • Our wooden bridge, repaired and treated with wood conservation.


  • Three days later in full color, this was November 10. Our center bridge visible, covered with fall leaves.


  • A view from across the pond...


  • This is the Acer Palmatum Sango-Kaku or Japanese Maple 'Coral Bark'


  • We do have other Acer - Maple trees but they don't have such lovely fall colors due to the hot and dry summer. 
  • Hope next year things will look better again.

    Dear Mariette,
    thank you so much for your sweet comment. I am late as always to read my favoured blogs. Your Acers are all great. I love trees which turn to different colors in fall time. The Acer is one of the prettiest. They look like sunshine in your garden. And the photo over the pont is just breath taking beautiful.
    Best Greetings, Johanna

    Your trees still look so beautiful Mariette! Such lovely colors they are displaying. It is snowing here again this morning. A fresh blanket of white. It is pretty, but I do not look forward to going out in it. :(

    Have a happy day!
