Often associated with stream banks, and moist canyons. It is the only native maple to the Northwest\u2019s coastal regions.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The distribution of Bigleaf maple generally reflects its adaptation to mild climates and sensitivity to cold temperatures. It grows abundantly on the west side of the cascades between sea level and about 1500 feet, sometimes reaching as high as 4000 feet in California and Oregon.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>As the name suggests, Bigleaf maple is easily distinguished from other maples because of its large leaves. Look for the large hand shaped leaves with deeply cut lobes reaching up to a foot long.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><span style=\"font-size: 12pt;color: #800000\"><strong>This Tree&#8217;s History<br><\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Owned by Ryan Neault, this impressive example of Acer macrophyllum has been well maintained by its owners.<span class=\"Apple-converted-space\">&nbsp; <\/span>Some pruning has occurred, but did not significantly affect the overall shape of the tree.<span class=\"Apple-converted-space\">&nbsp;<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator has-alpha-channel-opacity\" \/>\n\n\n\n<p><em>Our pages provide links to external sites for the convenience of users.
