Trees from a distance

[tomthetreeman]

I guess this tree just isn't that interesting, even though it's name is quite similar to that of a famous classical composer.

Ha.

[tomthetreeman]

No.

But you are a funny guy. A real nutcracker.

Ha.

I've been stuck inside an olive grove (literally). Someone wants to hold their wedding there this summer and the trees desperately need pruning attention.

I don't know how much help I can be with this ID because even with the attachment (which only makes it more blurry) it looks like drippy snow cones are in the tree

Is it agreed that this tree is in the Prunus -flowering cherry- family?

If so, what about P. avium 'Schmalfelds Schwarze'?

Otherwise, P. incisa 'Oshidori' ?
They have bell-like flowers and thus the drippy effect in the photo.

Over and out - for now.

Come on, guys! Rhymes with classical composer? Nutcracker? Sheesh.

This IS a very uncommon tree, so I'll just divulge if everyone is bored.

[trees4ever]

Okay, okay - I'm tired ... Prunus 'Tchaikovsky'.

-Diane-

 

[trees4ever]

You win, Tom.

What is its name...
This tree from the dance of the sugar plum fairies ?

-Diane-

 

[tomthetreeman]

Alright, then. I guess it's the busy time of year, and no one has the time to futz with these things...

Tschonoski crabapple, Malus tschonoskii, aka pillar apple. (Insert air squeaking out of a balloon sound here.)

Thanks, Tom.
Now I can crash and go to sleep!

Yes, long days ahead...

Ok, difficult one I think for everyone....which is why it aint from a distance.

Tree is located in Glasgow Botanic Gardens, Scotland.

Prizemoney of $6.00 US dollars for the correct answer will be presented to the winner at the Treebuzz Awards Ceremony next year.....sometime, possibly.

I know it as a Cut-Leaf Beech, but I belive some people use the term Fern Leaf Beech as well. So you are correct. It is afteralla Fagus sylvatica. Funnily enough this tree has almost entirely reverted back to the original foliage, which is pretty sad in some ways.

Well done Easy P

 

[easyphloem]

Nice.


Go ahead with your bad self, Waldo!

[tomthetreeman]

I am still waiting for my money.

 

[Waldo]

Here it is, i've got a picture of the foliage on this one if you guys can't get it.

 

[Waldo]

one more time... that last one didn't work.

 

[Waldo]

ok this one will work for sure

 

[tomthetreeman]

Crabapple would be the obvious guess.

So I'll say pussy willow.

foliage doesn't quite look right for it, but Washington hawthorn?
