I thought the same but 'Akebono' has pinker flowers

So I'll say P. serrulata 'Snow Goose'

Come on, guys! Do you really think I would put a Callery Pear up for ID?

I was dashing out the door and thought perhaps you were trying to make "light" of the hot and heavy Bradford Pear

Darn! That's a long way for this kitty-sitter to travel.
I shall just have to love him from afar

Can I just say that I can't stand Yoshino Cherry?

Dude, Yoshino are sweet when they are mature! They can get HUGE, which is what I like about them. Why don't you like them, muffin-cat?

(PS - This tree is neither Snowgoose nor Akebono. I am attaching a .jpg for a closer look. Remember, you must get the cultivar.)

Prunus serrulata 'Shirofugen'

I guess I am just feeling chippy because so many people have them, and they almost always get fireblight, and no one wants to spend any money to do anything about it...


I think the underlying problem is that I hate people.

[tomthetreeman]

Ok, here's a clue:

The straight species of this tree is considered a weed tree.

[easyphloem]

Prunus carolinia?

Even if it was, you'd have to get the cultivar.

[TNTree_man]

Prunus cerasus 'surefire'

Going out on a limb here.

 

[tomthetreeman]

Nope. The green leaves you see will eventually turn red. Does that help?

-Tom

 

[jerseygirl]

Amelanchier laevis

 

[tomthetreeman]

Nay. I didn't think this would be that hard... JZ, did you zoom on the attachment?

-Tom

 

[trees4ever]

Prunus virginiana 'Canada Red'
which is the sport of 'Schubert' --- so either one of those??

-Diane-

 

[tomthetreeman]

Actually, I think 'Schubert' is the sport of 'Canada Red,' but either way YOU GOT IT!

You're up!

-Tom

 

[trees4ever]

Okay!
This is a multi-choice:
1) What are the two trees on either side in the foreground?
And the Challenge:
2) What is the tree in the back to the left of the white flowering plum?

If you can follow ALL of THAT

[theXman]

big one on the right: english walnut.

little one on the left: some kind of Euc? not familar with any of them.

background next to the plum: some kind of fruit tree, I'll go with the odd choice; Quince?

That is correct! These walnut trees are all that remain of a huge (100 acres) walnut orchard. They're about 75 yrs. old.

[/ QUOTE ]

No, but definitely a member of a drought tolerant genus.

No, and actually, it is a quite common and delicious little fruit. If you could see its bark more clearly it would give it away.

Cherry? Bing?
