    I live in Southwest Louisiana. Can someone with knowledge of the area and climate make some recommendations for maples for this area? I would also appreciate knowing which ones do not do well here.

    There are hundreds of cultivars, you will have to do a little research as to what
    will not do well, I doubt anyone is going to type out a list for you.

    Here is a short list of what has done well for me outside of lafayette.

    Inaba shidare
    bloodgood
    beni shi en
    orangeola
    crimson queen
    tamuke yama
    seiryu
    sangu kaku
    red dragon
    garnet
    ever red
    boskoop glory
    moonfire
    red emperor
