Re: [ID] challenge
if it helps, the seed has a little pod with a short flap attacheted to it and looks like a helliopcota when it falls

Re: [ID] challenge
Could be a maple, but you need to wait till you get more leaves. The first two leaves, after the ones that push the seed off, are not always indicative of the mature leaves. Check back at the end of summer and we may be able to help. That's my opinion.
My trident seedlings first real leaves look like this, the next ones are normal.
Cheers

Re: [ID] challenge
Yes it is Acer negundo. Quite common (unfortunately). Horrible things. Dont tend to make good bonsai, but thats not to say theres not a good one out there somewhere. They arent worth it in my opinion.

Re: [ID] challenge

if so ill see how they go and if one lives i can use it to practice and it wont matter
