I. Red Maple trees (Acer rubrum)
Red maple trees (Acer rubrum) grow in USDA hardiness zones 4A through 9B. They are native to Eastern North America, including the Canadian provinces and Newfoundland. The U.S. Forest Service recognizes it as the most abundant native tree in eastern North America. In Florida, the Red Maple is found in nearly every county.

They are found in clusters which make them more noticeable if you look closely.
