Trees from a distance

[robinia]

Populus deltoides?

 

[Blinky]

Nope.

 

[MattyD]

Liriodendron tulipifera. Dianes guess

 

[tomthetreeman]

I think either Jim or Matty/Diane have it.

But I'm going to say Maclura pomifera just to be weird.

[Blinky]

It's a common tree in the South... not weird. Nobody has it yet. If the pic was closer it would be an easy one.

 

[MattyD]

Platanus occidentalis

 

[Blinky]

Please try again!

 

[tomthetreeman]

Q. nuttalli or garryana?

 

[robinia]

Catalpa

 

[Blinky]

Negatory two times... er, three, times, I think.

Here it is again for this page...

 

[MattyD]

Liquidambar styraciflua ?

 

[Blinky]

Dingdingding!

Just a big old double sweetgum. Customer would not abide it, I put $350 on it cleaned up and was underbid by almost half! I figure anybody that desparate needs the work more than me anyway.

It's too bad, I didn't get to use my 'balls' clue.

 

[tomthetreeman]

I just drove by a big one this aft, and thought that that would be my next guess. No, I'm serious!

Lower than $350! damn Blinks, thats crazy.

Heres one, pretty easy

 

[tomthetreeman]

Looks like Aesculus hippocastanum.

 

[MattyD]

Noo..........Yeeesss!

Heres that tree before removing the tip die back and deadwood.

 

[tomthetreeman]

Here's a toughie...

 

[BostonBull]

Cornus mas

 

[nuthin_special]

Prunus maackii? I suck at this game.

 

[tomthetreeman]

Not those trees. This one will probably require some clues... A relative of this tree has at least three common names...
