Maple syrup is made from the spring-running sap of Acer saccharum,
or the sugar maple tree.
Within the genus or family of maple trees, for instance, a red maple is
Acer rubrum and a sugar maple is Acer saccharum. Researchers kept up a running battle
over whether the western Oklahoma trees were Acer saccharum or Acer
grandidentatum, the bigtooth maple of the southern Rockies some 300
miles to the west. |
