there, is there a certain type of maple that you prefer when we're talking about this subject?

Yeah.

I, I really like the sugar maple.

Not only because I make maple syrup, but you know, they're, of the the true hardy maple um they're not fast growing like a silver maple they're a little bit slower growing um and not as many issues that way um but also like there's a few different varieties of red maples up here in minnesota that do pretty well I try and avoid, you know, autumn blaze maples just because they have really poor structure.

But they are kind of bulletproof if they don't fall apart in storms.

Like, you know, they can grow just about anywhere.

Anything else on your list?

You know, up here in Minnesota, it's a little bit colder, so our pallet of trees isn't as wide as if you get, you know, just a few hours south of us in the, you know, Iowa or southern Minnesota.
