What kind of maple tree has helicopter seeds?
More commonly referred to as “helicopters,” “whirlers,” “twisters” or “whirligigs,” samaras are the winged seeds produced by maple trees. All maples produce samaras, but red, silver and Norway maples often produce the largest quantities.
Do all maple trees have whirlybirds?
The fruits of maple trees (Acer spp.) are called samaras, but kids of all ages call them helicopters. Each seed has its own little “wings” that allow it to spiral downward and plant itself in the soil below. Maples aren’t the only species that produce samaras, but their helicopters fly best, by far.
