No, no one has even been in the ballpark yet. Sorry.



And for the record, I've climbed 60'+ Katsurra's before, yes they get that big.

I've never seen one that big

Me either.

I had to look it up to see if they reached that kind of height.

I did the same after I saw your guess.



It must be amazing when it 'turns' in the Fall not to mention the fragrance!




For Blinky's tree I'll guess: Liriodendron tulipifera

Oh, wow!

When I posted I saw Jeff's reply!!



Okay, so we still don't know Jeff's tree then!

[JeffL]

Ok, I guess I'll start hinting. There are several varieties of this species available for landscape use from the nurseries.

deleted in lieu of next guess, which was way more smarter.

Ulmus glabra

...sorry forget that, I remember you said no one was close.

 

[tomthetreeman]

River birch . Duh. Probably Heritage.

 

[JeffL]

Haha, thank you Tom. The lightbulb finally went off?

Correct!

 

[robinia]

Yeah, took me a little while, though!

Here's something for your guessing pleasure!

Apologies, the first attachment has been replaced... I clicked on one that I already used and had to reattach the new one. Which should be just about the most difficult one ever.

[trees4ever]

That was a great one, Jeff.

Although, I liked that 'phantom' Katsura

-Diane

 

[MattyD]

haha. Thats got to make the top 10 TFAD. Nice tree Jeff!

 

[trees4ever]

So, Tom, is your tree in the Beech family?
Fagus orientalis, maybe??



I'm turning TFAD into 20 questions.
We've got to mix it up from time to time, guys!

[theXman]

yellowwood

 

[tomthetreeman]

Not in the Beech family, and not a Yellowwood.
