The long scattered hairs on the drooping pedicels of the corymbose inflorescence of Acer grandidentatum helps to distinguish it from other native maple species in the area.Flowers lack petals and consist of greenish sepals which usually have eight stamens and which also have some long hairs like the pedicels.April 26, 2013, Salt Lake County, Utah, Wasatch Front foothills, 5125 ft. elev.
While Acer grandidentatum can in ideal environments grow as tall as 8 m or more from typically one or two trunks, in drier places it tends to have multiple stems and may be closer to tall shrub to small tree in size (plant pictured was in the 4 to 4.5 m height range). This is the tree that tends to turn a brilliant red in fall.April 26, 2013, Salt Lake County, Utah, Wasatch Front foothills, 5125 ft. elev.
