Tiny red flowers emerge in early spring to the delight of early native pollinators. Foliage puts on a fiery red show you can’t help but admire! Swamp red maple is one of the earliest blooming trees in the northeast. The flowers provide nectar for small bees, flies, and beetles, which in turn attract insect-eating birds such as kinglets, phoebes, pine warblers, and others.
