I dug this tiny sprig of a tree up out of the woods lot across the drive. The second year in it's new spot the tenant farmer cut it down with a mower. Then a couple of years ago, a huge oak limb from the massive oak fell and broke off the right side limbs. I would call this Maple a sturdy tree.

Looking off to the right into the woods from the driveway. Golden woods.
The kitty justice if a tree is to survive it will no matter what happens.
