The Silver Maple (Acer saccharinum), commonly known as White Maple, is one of North America's most graceful deciduous trees. Its deeply cut leaves flash silver-white undersides in the wind, creating a shimmering effect that inspired its common name.
Native Habitat
Acer saccharinum grows throughout eastern North America, favouring floodplains, riverbanks, and moist lowlands. It is among the first trees to flower in spring, producing small red blooms before the leaves emerge.
Cultural Heritage
While less famous for syrup than its cousin the Sugar Maple, silver maple sap was tapped by various Indigenous nations. The soft, fast-growing wood was used for furniture and utensils. Early American botanists prized it for its ornamental qualities.

The Story Behind the Print
Every print in our collection begins with a historical botanical illustration, many over 150 years old, sourced from institutional archives and scientific expeditions that first documented Australia's extraordinary native flora.
These illustrations were originally created by botanical artists who spent weeks in the field, working directly from living specimens. The level of detail in each plate reflects a scientific tradition where accuracy was paramount and beauty was a natural consequence of careful observation.
We reproduce each illustration using FSC-certified archival paper and calibrated colour processes that preserve the subtlety of the original work. The result is a print that honours the craft of the original artist while meeting contemporary standards for sustainable production.
