From large freshwater lakes, dense boreal forests, and prairie grasslands in the Southern and Central regions to the Hudson Bay coastline and the arctic tundra in the North. I have the opportunity to get what I would like of a Manitoba Maple tree. Moreover, many of these trees are indigenous to North America and Canada, including the infamous Sugar Maple.īeing the easternmost of Canada’s three Prairie Provinces, Manitoba covers over 250,000 square miles of extraordinarily diverse and varied landscape. Also known as ash-leaf maple or boxelder. Most of these trees grow in the temperate zones of the Northern Hemisphere, while many of them are native to eastern Asia. Fruits are grape-like clusters of berries turning green to purple. Amur corktree is an uncommon tree species. Manitoba maple generally has 3-5 leaflets (occasionally 7) with slight lobes, crooked form, and clusters of maple keys. Maple Trees fall under the plant genus ‘Acer’ and are over 150 species of Maple across the world. Manitoba maple is the only native maple with a compound leaf.
