The iconic sugar maple leaves have 5 lobes, not 3. I am a Certified Naturalist with a specialty in native trees.

I think you are saying the same thing in a different manner. The other two lobes being the “legs” at the bottom. Looking at pictures of sugar maple leaves, both descriptions fit to me.

Was the part with the two legs added in an edit? It was there by the time I commented (obviously, as I mentioned it). Without that part, then yeah, that description is off

What kind of certification do you need to take your clothes off and play volleyball with your friends?
