maple
楓 centers on the maple tree, specifically the Japanese maple known for its distinctive leaves and autumn colors.
楓 combines 木 (tree) with 風 (wind), likely because maple leaves are known to rustle in the wind or because the tree is associated with autumn breezes.
A tree 木 that loves the wind 風: picture a maple tree with its leaves fluttering and rustling in a gentle breeze.
For フウ, imagine the sound of wind blowing through maple leaves: "foo" — the wind goes フウ as it rustles the maple tree.
