A '''Maple Tree''' is a common [[Trees|Tree]] that grows from a [[Maple Seed]]. It yields [[Maple Syrup]] every 9 days when [[Tapper|tapped]]. It can be chopped down with an axe, producing [[Wood]], [[Sap]], possible Maple Seeds, and possible [[Hardwood]] (if the player is a [[Foraging#Foraging Skill|Lumberjack]]).  Normally, shaking a Maple Tree has a chance of producing a Maple Seed, but during the last two weeks of [[Fall]], a [[Hazelnut]] is dropped instead.

A planted Maple Seed grows through four stages before reaching maturity (with twice as much time spent at stage 4).  If [[Tree Fertilizer|fertilized]], this takes five days (even in [[Winter]]).  Otherwise, there is a 20% chance per day of growth, except in winter when trees do not grow.  The median time to maturity is 24 days, although individual tree growth times will vary considerably.
