Maples have a fruit called a samara, which means that the fruit is a wing. You've probably seen maple samaras, or maybe samaras from other trees. They look like little "helicopters" falling down. Maples actually have double samaras, so there are two samaras attached. They each have their own seed which is enclosed in the papery wing. Samaras are adapted to dispersal by wind.

Do maple trees lose their leaves in the winter?
I believe all maples lose their leaves in the fall but certain oak trees keep their leaves all year.
The "live oak" is named such because it keeps its leaves through the winter.
What do maple trees look like?
Maple tree seeds often are called helicopters, because they are two connected seed pods made for flying short distances.
Depending on the species, the seeds can be small and green to yellow and big with thicker seed pods.
The green seeds are released in pairs, sometimes with the stems still connected.
The yellow seeds are released individually and almost always without the stems. Most species require stratification in order to germinate, and some seeds can remain dormant in the soil for several years before germinating

How long to grow a maple tree?
Maple trees grow very quickly, so literally, it takes very little time for the tree to grow.However, if your intention is to chop it down for wood, then you are looking at 15 years and more.Maple trees are good trees to grow in the colder climates as they are quite resiliant, and in some regions are even considered invasive.
As with any tree, for the trunk to be sturdy and solid, it will need many years.

When comparing an oak tree with a maple tree you can correctly say that?
We have an older than 35 yr old Live Oak and we have removed some of the large roots (above grownd and below) BUT I'm not sure about a tree that is only 35 yrs old. When we did remove roots, we only remove a couple small ones or 1 large one during one season.
From the info our tree man has told me (pertaining to our live oak tree) Our whole neighborhood would have to be blown flat before we would see the tree down and removing roots (not alot at a time won't hurt). We made a flower bed using 4" high brick like around our tree then adding no more than 2-3 inches of dirt each yr (more will hurt the tree) then we planted ferns in the bed around the tree. Now those ugly surface roots don't show and the tree seems to like it and it has been like that for 4 yrs now. "Damage" is a complex subject when it comes to trees. The tree needs all the water and nutrients it can get to be healthy. When you cut any roots, you risk damaging the tree, either visibly or invisibly, either immediately or in the long term. Do not cover the visible roots with soil or planting as that will eventually suffocate the tree. Cover with pine straw or leave exposed. Never cover top roots of live oak.
