Q.I Have Been Told This Is A Maple, What Should I Do Now?
I’ve been told these are some kind of maple tree (if it is, what type of maple would be helpful for me too). I found them in the woods so decided to take them home, the leaves look a bit drowsy but I guess that’s just because they’ve been in the shade. I take it these are only a few weeks/months old, what should I do with them to help them grow?

Unfortunately, it hasn't been long enough from the last question for it to have changed enough to pin an ID. Without seeing when the seeds form, mature roots, leave color when they first appear and many other factors it will be very difficult to say what cultivar that it is.
Because of the stress from taking it out of ground and being in shade, it has not recovered enough to pin down an ID. Even then, it may take a year or two to see enough of the tree to know what it is.
One thing that you could do is take it up to your local extension services. They can get a more up close look at the tree than I can with these pictures.
