A great clump of mountain maples stood near the bank.

A scanty undergrowth of mountain maple and numerous sugar maple seedlings is present.

The mountain maple is a dainty shrub with ruddy stems, large, three-lobed leaves, erect clusters of yellow flowers and tiny brown keys.

Scattered among these are bushes and scrubby trees, called "forest weeds," such as mountain maple and dogwood, Fig.

The mountain maple—the nurserymen call it Acer spicatum—is another native of rather dwarf growth.
