Helicopter seeds: which trees do they come from?

In the UK you can find native and non-native trees which produce helicopter seeds. These trees are field maple, ash, sycamore, and Norway maple. The term ‘helicopter seeds’ was coined based on the way these seeds spiral through the air during dispersal. In botanical terminology these are winged seeds known as samaras.

A fun way to identify the different seeds and their trees is to think of the seeds as moustaches of famous people!
