State Trees Series: Vermont, Sugar Maple
The state tree of Vermont is the sugar maple (Acer saccharum), designated in 1949. This tree is famous for its brilliant red, orange, and yellow fall foliage, making Vermont a popular destination for leaf-peeping. It is also the primary source of maple syrup, a product deeply tied to the state's culture and economy. Sugar maples thrive in Vermont's cool climate and provide valuable hardwood for furniture and flooring. The tree symbolizes beauty, tradition, and the state's rich natural resources. The State Trees collection is a unique way to show your state pride! Choose your state, or pick your favorite tree from the collection and watch it come to life. This would make a great gift for a fellow out-of-state puzzle-lover. Go on an 'adventure across the country' and collect them all!
