On mature trunks, the bark is gray and shaggy.
They can also change sex from year to year. Like most maples, silver maple can be variably dioecious (separate male or female trees) or monoecious (male and female flowers on the same tree) but dioecious trees are far more common. Seed production begins at 11 years of age and large crops are produced most years. The seeds of both trees have no epigeal dormancy and will germinate immediately. Silver maple and its close cousin red maple are the only Acer species which produce their fruit crop in spring instead of fall. Although the wings provide for some transport by air, the fruit are heavy and are also transported by water. The fruit are the largest among the maples native to its range. The fruit are samaras, each containing a single seed, and winged, in pairs, small (5–10 mm or 0.20–0.39 in in diameter), the wing about 3–5 cm ( 1 + 1⁄ 4–2 in) long. The flowers are in dense clusters, produced before the leaves in early spring, with the seeds maturing in early summer. The tree has a tendency to color and drop its leaves slightly earlier in autumn than other maples.
The autumn color is less pronounced than in many maples, generally ending up a pale yellow, although some specimens can produce a more brilliant yellow and even orange and red colorations. The 5–12 cm (2– 4 + 3⁄ 4 in) long, slender stalks of the leaves mean that even a light breeze can produce a striking effect as the downy silver undersides of the leaves are exposed. The leaves are simple and palmately veined, 8–16 cm ( 3 + 1⁄ 4– 6 + 1⁄ 4 in) long and 6–12 cm ( 2 + 1⁄ 4– 4 + 3⁄ 4 in) broad, with deep angular notches between the five lobes. It is a highly adaptable tree, although it has higher sunlight requirements than other maple trees. It is often found along waterways and in wetlands, leading to the colloquial name "water maple". A 10-year-old sapling will stand about 8 m (26 ft) tall. Its spread will generally be 11–15 m (36–49 ft) wide.
