A reporter from local news station KFOR supposedly called it the biggest, most destructive tornado in the history of the world, and estimated it was two to three times the magnitude of the massive tornados that hit Oklahoma in 1999. Updates to come. Updates:
Acer ârubrumâ refers to the color red, and red is certainly this treeâs defining feature. When fall arrives, your Red Maple will be one of the first to color, quickly cloaking itself in more of the vibrant red shades that give it its name.
Q: I planted a Northwood red maple two years ago as a bareroot tree. The first year it seemed fine, but really didn't do much and the leaves seemed a little pale. This year the leaves opened, but are noticeably yellow with a thin line of green along the veins. Some of the leaves are turning brown.
