They are huge, and often covered in mosses and little ferns. Part of our temperate rain forests.

Beautiful, Audrey. I love the bright yellow leaves against the dark bark. It’s a familar sight here in the PNW too. Just gorgeous.

Thanks, Diana. Yes, we live in the same botanical region. I think there are more of the small vine maples where you are. As I recall, they turn bright red in fall.

Both, Audrey. I have a big leaf in the front yard that turned yellow, but not quite as yellow as yours (perhaps if the sun was out it would brighten up!). And the vine maple do turn red. The Japanese maples are gorgeous too!

I love Japanese maples, but any I’ve planted in my garden have croaked in short order. I suspect a fungus called Verticillium. Those bigleaf maples in my post are in a park about a half hour drive away; its a steep hillside with a creek in a ravine, and those gorgeous big trees. Lots of ferns too. When the yellow leaves float down, it’s magical.

I love walking under falling leaves – and trying to catch them too.

Yes, it’s especially lovely when they float down gently.

Surrounded by BLMs here. Have raked up millions of their litter, some leaves a foot across. Talk about big leaf.

I’d rather have a bigleaf maple than the Norway maples someone planted here, or rather didn’t bother removing when they were small. There is one bigleaf about half a block away, but it seems to be struggling. Or maybe it’s just old. I collected some seeds from it and will see if any come up.
