Field Maple (Hedge Maple, Common Maple)

• Common Name: Field Maple (Hedge Maple, Common Maple)
• Latin Name: Acer campestre
• Family Name: Aceraceae/Sapindaceae

Like all the members of the Maple family, the sap of the Field Maple has a high sugar content, and for that reason the plant should not form a sizeable part of a tortoise's diet (although there is no reason to worry if the odd leaf is eaten).
