Acer glabrum var. douglasii, commonly known as Douglas Maple or Dwarf Maple, is a broadleaf deciduous tree can grow up to 30 ft tall, or often present as a multistemmed shrub standing 4-6 ft tall. The upright tree features reddish or grayish twigs, complemented by simple, ovate leaves that are shiny dark green above and blue-green beneath. Leaves are 6-12 cm across, sometimes reaching up to 20cm, with 3-5 lobes and a slightly heart-shaped base. In the fall, these leaves transform into vivid colors ranging from yellow to orange to crimson. Douglas Maple blooms in cluster of yellowish-green flowers, 5 mm across, usually appearing on separate trees and together with the leaves. It produces wings 2-2.5 cm long that turn from green to pink or reddish and then light brown in fall. It grows well in sun to part shade and is hardy to USDA Zone 4. This tree, named after Scottish botanist David Douglas, is native to areas from southeastern Alaska to Oregon. This is not just a beautiful tree but also serves as an important browse species for deer, elk and other big game animals. Grosbeaks and small mammals also enjoy its seeds.
