When I planted this tree four years ago it was as tall as my granddaughters,every year they stand in front of it and I take a picture to see who grows faster,the tree is way ahead,LOL.It was about four feet when I planted it and now its 16 feet or more,it grows very fast.When the wind blows it has a silver color to it under the leaves.I was told its a sillver maple but its not,I did find our once what it was and it was considered a jjunk tree.I want to know the name of it becasue peaple keep asking me what it is.They grow all over here and if you have one you have all kinds of lttle ones growing under it unless you keep them mowed down.I hope someone can tell me what it is .
