Green Maple leaf in springtime
Samara is a winged achene from maple tree, type of fruit in which a flattened wing of fibrous, papery tissue develops from the ovary wall. A samara is a simple dry fruit. The shape of a samara enables the wind to carry the seed farther away. The wind is making the seed autorotate as it falls, as in the maples (genus Acer) and ash trees (genus Fraxinus). A samara is sometimes called a key and is often referred to as a wingnut, helicopter or whirlybird, whirligig, polynose, or, in the north of England, a spinning jenny.

The seeds of Japanese maples are housed in samaras, whish are propeller-shaped capsules. Growing in pairs, they emerge in shades of green before maturing to red during growing season. Upon ripening in September to October, they will look brown and crinkly.The propeller shape of the samaras is actually vital for seed distribution. As a samara falls from its tree, the “blade” of the fruit catches air currents, which spin the samara like a helicopter.[From “Gardener’s Path]
