Sugar maple, red maple, silver maple, Norway maple and Japanese maple all have the familiar lobed leaf, but the details tell them apart. Our maple tree identifier compares the leaf shape, the notches between lobes and the winged seeds in your photo. It also helps with easy confusions such as sycamore and sweetgum.
How It Works
Photograph one leaf flat against a plain surface, showing the lobes and the sinuses between them, and add the bark and any samaras (helicopter seeds). Breaking a leaf stalk to check for milky sap helps separate Norway maple. The result names the species, its fall color and tapping or care notes.
Key Benefits
- Separates sugar, red, silver, Norway and Japanese maples by leaf lobes and edges
- Distinguishes maples from sycamore, sweetgum and tulip tree look-alikes
- Identifies maple seeds by the angle of their paired wings
- Tells you which species are best for tapping syrup
- Free with no sign-up

Frequently Asked Questions
Common questions about maple tree identifier
Upload a photo of a leaf and, if possible, bark or seeds and the tool will suggest the maple species. Lobe shape and the edges of the leaf are the strongest clues.
Break a leaf stalk: Norway maple oozes milky sap while sugar maple does not. Norway maple leaves are also wider and its fall color is usually dull yellow.
Maple leaves grow in opposite pairs on the twig, while sweetgum leaves alternate and are star-shaped. Sweetgum also has spiky ball-shaped fruit instead of winged seeds.
Yes. Wilted or dry red maple leaves can cause severe anemia in horses. Keep fallen leaves and storm-damaged branches out of pastures.
Sugar maple gives the sweetest sap, but red, silver and black maples and box elder can also be tapped. Tapping is done in late winter when days thaw and nights freeze.
