Also known as "Red Maple" and "Silver Maple":
- the wood of the red maple resembles that of the sugar maple, being
close-grained, but it is much softer in texture and lacks the figure
that the sugar maple has. It is generally used in cheaper furniture
and all types of general woodwork.
- Silver maple belongs to the soft maple group and is very similar to
red maple in respect to its growing conditions and the texture of the
wood. It is easily distinguished from red maple because of the
difference in the leaves. They have a light green surface and are
silvery white on the underside.
