SPECIES REFERENCE / Acer davidii
Acer davidii, or Père David's maple, is a species of maple in the snakebark maple group. It is native to China, from Jiangsu south to Fujian and Guangdong, and west to southeastern Gansu and Yunnan. The tree's initial discovery is attributed to an unknown Chinese individual, however it was French missionary Armand David who documented the species during his time in Central China at the request of the French government. The tree was later rediscovered by Charles Maries during his 1878 exploration of Jiangsu.
