Or are they too different of species to be successful (even though they are from acer family).
I need help identifying this tree. I think it is Acer saccharum (Sugar Maple) but not entirely sure. I'm located in southern Wisconsin, this tree in particular is next to a road, with plenty of sunlight, and has been recently competing with some boxelder.

The scientific names are in the question but in case I got them wrong, do the maple trees that grow in Kashmir (referred to as Chinar) produce maple syrup like their look alikes in Canada?
Many plants in the wilderness can provide the needed sugar that can sustain a survival diet. In our country, it was the Native Americans that used such plants extensively, and with the arrival of the first settlers, some of these plants become very popular.
They remained popular through the years, and nowadays, they are sold commercially.
Many of the plants you can find in the wilderness secrete a sweet sap that humans have learned to boil down to turn it into syrup or sugar. Even more, certain plants exude a gummy substance you can chew on to satisfy your sweet tooth. This was a common practice back in the days of the first pioneers.
Check out the following sugar and gum plants:
- Fir tree – The balsam fir tree (Abies balsamea) is a common slender three in North America that can reach a height of eighty feet. However, on the mountain tops and in the arctic regions, the tree grows relatively small, only a few feet high. The fir tree bark is smooth, but it has a distinctive characteristic that makes its identification relatively easy. The smooth bark is dotted by raised bark blisters (known as balsam blisters) containing a clear, sticky resin that helps to protect the tree in various ways. The flat leaves are nearly an inch long, dark green on the upper branches and pale green on the lower limbs. The fir tree produces cones that can grow up to four inches long, but the standard size varies between 2 and 3 inches long. The cones stand erect on the upper branches and area usually an inch thick. The fir tree can be found from Newfoundland and Labrador to Hudson Hay and Alberta. In addition, it can be encountered south of Massachusetts, Pennsylvania, and Iowa. The ideal growing environment is located in swamps and damp woods, but it can also grow on mountain tops where water evaporation occurs slowly. Back in the day, before the days of commercial chewing gums, people used to collect the resinous pitch secreted by the trunks and sell it to the stores. The sticky pitch was molded into short sticks and was sold to both young and old. Back in the day, it was so popular that people used to organize social gatherings in fir tree forest to collect and sell the buttery pitch.
- Sugar pine – The sugar pine (Pinus lambertiana) is easily recognized by its thick brown bark with rough ridges. However, most people recognize it by its five needles gathered in the clusters. The leaves or needles range in length from two to

I said "hey look, an escaPEA"
No one near me but it didn't half make me laugh for a good hour or so!

Dad jokes are supposed to be jokes you can tell a kid and they will understand it and find it funny.
This sub is mostly just NSFW puns now.
If it needs a NSFW tag it's not a dad joke. There should just be a NSFW puns subreddit for that.
Edit* I'm not replying any longer and turning off notifications but to all those that say "no one cares", there sure are a lot of you arguing about it. Maybe I'm wrong but you people don't need to be rude about it. If you really don't care, don't comment.

" Nice Belt "
So What did 3 say to 8 ?
" Hey, you two stop making out "
When I got home, they were still there.
I won't be doing that today!
I have puzzled over why Mihoyo would choose a maple leaf to be Kazuha's motif for a while now. Being practically from Canada myself (ten minutes south of the border), I had of course made a strong connection between maple trees and maple syrup. But with the release of more information about him, I began to take note of a few things. His name, Kazuha Kaedehara, means Ten-thousand leaves/leaf (Kazuha) Maple-stomach (Kaedehara), but the "stomach" portion means something like "soul" or "true essence", so meaning-wise it would be more appropriate to translate Keadehara as "Maple-soul". It has been pointed out to me that Kaedehara would more likely be translated as "maple fields". Thank you, erys-n. But the most interesting part about him is his constellation, Acer Palmatum. Acer palmatum is the scientific name for a specific kind of maple tree, the Japanese maple tree. No surprise there. The Japanese maple tree is a symbol of grace and elegance, as well as being at peace with oneself. It also features in a number of poems (another of Kazuha's themes), generally evoking a picture of falling red leaves. In contrast, acer saccharum, the Canadian sugar maple, is the tree used to make maple syrup. It has very little known symbolism, and the most I could find about it was that it was believed to have some measure of power that was able to drive away demons and spirits. In conclusion, I think that the "Canadian [Aether]" joke was wearing a bit thin anyway, and maybe we should at least decrease our usage of it. If you still aren't convinced, I hope this post at least gave you some insight into Kazuha's themes and the effort Mihoyo put into crafting his thematic essence. (Open to criticism)
