scarlet maple a-blaze!
2009 October 20
Our scarlet maple is at its peak of color this week! I love to lay under its canopy and get caught up in its beauty!
The bark even has a reddish glow to it right now.
Every year we are sure to collect many scarlet maple leaves for study and crafty goodness. I love to include leaves on our Yule tree, so let the collecting and preserving begin!

Stunning! Just stunning!
Beautiful tree cloaked in such glory!
So breathtaking! What lovely colors to sit and dream upon
That is absolutely stunning.
yep, beautiful! I love fall.
Ahhhh, so beautiful and vivid colors on your pictures and on your tree! I suddenly feel an urgent need for planting a maple tree. Is it a special kind of marple called scarlet?
Amazing colours! Beautiful pictures. Your’re such a great photographer!
I miss familiar trees. Thank you so much for sharing this!
We saw a bunch of fire maples on the way home from market on Sunday… what a beautiful roadway that was!!! All fire and scarlet. I just love fall.
Beautiful pictures.
Love Val
Spectacular!!! Beautiful photos
wow, I think I can’t even remember super RED like that! Thank you!
This is the most beautiful tree! Just dreamy.
Oh, so beautiful. We have so many trees in our yard, many different maples, but no scarlet maples. We planted a sugar maple last year, and although it is still small, I dream of the color it will be to our yard in the years to come. Enjoy these lovely fall days!
WOW! Your scarlet maple is SO gorgeous. I wish I could lay under it
) Thanks for the beautiful photos.

My eyes are sparkling with joy, looking at your pictures of your scarlet maple! Tell me how to preserve leaves for my Christmas tree, too! love, Beth
Oh, how lovely! Enjoy it while it lasts!!
Love how you wrote a-blaze, it sounds so beautiful and the pictures are tops! I would be collecting as many as I could were I there. I used to have two scarlet leaves that I kept on my bulletin board for almost 12 years. When I moved the board they crumbled from being so old. I still miss being able to look at them, but glad you showed them to me again. Thanks so much. xxoo
No doubt! What a gorgeous tree and gorgeous pictures!
Gorgeous! I love those maples and miss Fall back east! Thanks for sharing.
