Default Norway Maple - Northern California

"Myrl Jeffcoat" wrote in message
ups.com...
I recall a few months back that I was involved in a discussion about
replacing a tree in my front yard. During the discussion, I pretty
much decided to select a Norway Maple.

I'm nearly ready to purchase that tree, but have one more question.
Do any of you know, if Norwa Maples do well in Sacramento - Northern
California (no snow, but lots of summer heat)?

Thank you!

In both of his excellent books, the late Henry Mitchell described the Norway
maple in terms similar to those used by people who find out that a
registered sex offender is moving in next door. Pick a different tree. I
can't recommend any.

When you contacted this organization using a telephone, and asked them about
other tree ideas, what did they recommend?

You didn't contact them?
