ANOTHER PERFECT DAY
HEDGE MAPLE SEEDS
HEDGE MAPLE
KAYAKERS ALONG THE WASHBURN SHORELINEFriday, 8:00 AM. 66 degrees, wind W, calm. The sky is blue with some haze over the lake. The barometer predicts rain but I think not likely. Another perfect day.
The hedge maple, Acer campestre, of Asian origin, is a small tree or large shrub that is quite decorative, with winged, greenish pink fall seeds (samaras). I think it could be invasive because it seeds so heavily, but it is not so listed.
Our guests are gone and the fishing rods put away and it is high time to catch up with the garden work.
