Growing 'red sunset' maples from seed?

20 years ago

My grandfather has several 10-12 foot tall maple trees. He calls them "red sunset" maples. Right now they are loaded with small brown seed pods. Many have already fallen off the tree.

I grow conifers from seed often but I have never tried growing maples. What is the best method to grow some of these beautiful maples from seed? Do they require any sort of stratification or are the seeds ready to plant right now?

Any tips or suggestions to get me started would be greatly appreciated.

Regards,

Dave
