Acer saccharum, the sugar maple, is a species of flowering plant in the soapberry and lychee family Sapindaceae. It is native to the hardwood forests of eastern Canada and the eastern United States.[3] Sugar maple is best known for being the primary source of maple syrup and for its brightly colored fall foliage.[4] It may also be called "rock maple," "sugar tree," "sweet maple," or, particularly in reference to the wood, "hard maple,"[5] "birds-eye maple," or "curly maple," the last two being specially figured lumber.[6][7]
