Red Maple (Acer rubrum) is a deciduous tree native to eastern North America. Red flowers and winged seed appear before the leaves in spring, and the autumn foliage can turn red, orange, or yellow.
Red Maple grows in sun or partial shade and adapts to soils ranging from moist to seasonally dry, although it performs best in moist acidic soil and can show nutrient deficiencies in alkaline ground.

How to stratify seed
In the fridge. Put the seed in a bag with a damp medium such as peat moss, vermiculite, sand or coco coir. The medium is only there to hold moisture. Keep the bag in the fridge, above freezing, for the cold period shown, then sow.
Or outside. Sow the seed outdoors in the fall and let winter do the cold period.
