Your Maple tree is suffering from the physiological disorder called SCORCH.The causal factors of the disease are drought and heat stress.Symptoms usually develop after periods of hot, dry weather in July and August. Leaves appear curled at the edges and cupped; they may develop brown, necrotic or dead margins. Leaves also shrivel and drop prematurely. Since the symptoms can be confused with those associated with anthracnose, careful examination is necessary for accurate diagnosis.Although the weather can’t be controlled and there are no "cures" once the damage is done, there are steps that can minimize the effects of scorch. These include maintaining optimum growth and vigor by watering during periods of drought, fertilizing at the proper time to avoid growth late in the season that may not harden-off properly for the winter, and pruning to remove dead twigs or branches to minimize secondary invaders or opportunistic pests.

Definitely Fall.\n\nHere in Minnesota we have great seasons (as do other states).\n\nSince we moved here, I have always raked the leaves in Fall into a huge pile... and plopped into them! :)

The fall colors are the "natural" color of the leaves.  The same leaves look green during the spring and summer, because they are filled with chlorophyll, which is itself green.  When the tree stops growing in the cooler months, it stops producing chorophyll, which dies off, leaving the reds, oranges and yellows that we see.\n\nHope this helps.  Good luck!!

Cactus, you only have to give it water once for the whole winter.\n\nI give mine water in November then I don't give water again until February.

Leaves are nature's food factories. Plants take water from the ground through their roots. They take a gas called carbon dioxide from the air. Plants use sunlight to turn water and carbon dioxide into glucose. Glucose is a kind of sugar. Plants use glucose as food for energy and as a building block for growing. The way plants turn water and carbon dioxide into sugar is called photosynthesis. That means "putting together with light." A chemical called chlorophyll helps make photosynthesis happen. Chlorophyll is what gives plants their green color. \n\n\nAs summer ends and autumn comes, the days get shorter and shorter. This is how the trees "know" to begin getting ready for winter. \n\nDuring winter, there is not enough light or water for photosynthesis. The trees will rest, and live off the food they stored during the summer. They begin to shut down their food-making factories. The green chlorophyll disappears from the leaves. As the bright green fades away, we begin to see yellow and orange colors. Small amounts of these colors have been in the leaves all along. We just can't see them in the summer, because they are covered up by the green chlorophyll. \n\nThe bright reds and purples we see in leaves are made mostly in the fall. In some trees, like maples, glucose is trapped in the leaves after photosynthesis stops. Sunlight and the cool nights of autumn cause the leaves turn this glucose into a red color. The brown color of trees like oaks is made from wastes left in the leaves. \n\nIt is the combination of all these things that make the beautiful colors we enjoy in the fall.

Yes. You can use this website to identify many trees with leaf shapes similar to many kinds of maples such as sugar maples and silver maples.

It is quite true that soil temperatures where the living parts of the plants are during winter are not as cold as the surface temperature. That is the first fact. The second thing that comes into play is that plants produce chemicals that depress the freezing point of water and prevent ice crystals from forming and rupturing cell walls. The next factor is that many plants forms seeds or spores that are biologically inactive when conditions are not suitable for growth. This is sort of a suspended animation. It is also important to recall that plants even as large as trees have only a very small proportion of actual "living material." In a tree in winter, the cambium and rootas are "alive" The cambium goes inactive and reactivates when spring comes and the roots remain fairly dormant through winter until warming weather stimulates the cambium back to life and the roots then beginning sending sap up the tree. The question is complex as plants vary from one celled organisms to trees.

Leaves have sugars, phytochemicals, and chlorophyll. The chlorophyll's color masks everything else, until the tree stops producing in the fall. Then the other compounds can shine. Different trees have different amounts of these "background" compounds, which are also influenced by sunlight and temperature; that's why the cold clear days in the northeast US help the trees give a good show.
