Common Name:  Bigtooth Maple, Canyon Maple, Wasatch Maple, Western Sugar Maple

Description:  A small tree of varying forms and sizes that is adapted well to various soil types and moisture conditions. The flowers are not showy, but the deeply-lobed, tooth-like leaves are an attractive dark green in the summer changing to exceptional fall colors of yellow to red. The bark is smooth and gray. A good choice for water conserving landscapes at the residential scale.

Native Habitat:  Common to the foothills and mountains of Utah and Idaho and extending throughout most of the western states as far east as Texas. Occurs in areas with 16-30 inches of precipitation and is hardy to -30°F. It is generally larger in riparian areas and north to east facing slopes, but can also occur in dry, south facing slopes and in a variety of soil types.
