Scarlet Oak
The scarlet oak (Quercus coccinea) is a deciduous tree known for its vibrant red fall foliage. It's native to eastern North America and is commonly used in residential yards and parks, valued for its ornamental appearance and rapid growth. Scarlet oaks typically grow to be 50-80 feet tall and 45-60 feet wide.

Norway Maple
Leaves taken from two different trees.
A red Norway maple refers to a cultivar of the Norway maple, often called 'Crimson King' or 'Royal Red', known for its striking reddish-purple leaves that retain their color throughout the growing season. These trees are popular in landscaping due to their vibrant foliage and shade-providing capabilities. They are generally mid-sized, reaching heights of 30-40 feet, and prefer full sun and well-drained soil. Leaves are more inundated than red maples pictured below.

Happy to find several of these Rowans, or Mountain Ash.
They are around the reservoir off Bowthorpe.
