Trees from a distance

[Dan_Watkins]

hint: since you cant see the leaves, they are pinnate

Juglans cinera?

 

[Dan_Watkins]

no juglans

 

[tomthetreeman]

Actually, my first thought was Juglans nigra, but when I saw the size of the tree I kinda changed my tune. I am pretty sure it's not a cinerea, and based on some big ones that I saw at the Morton, I think it COULD be a Black Walnut, but for the sake of being different I'll guess...

Styphnolobium japonicum aka Sophora japonica.

Styphnolobium japonicum x 2

 

[robinia]

That's what I thought, but I understood we were going with natives!

 

[tomthetreeman]

Oh. Yeah. I have some other guesses then.

 

[Dan_Watkins]

tom and dave got it!

 

[Dan_Watkins]

saw this tree out on Martha's Vineyard this spring. Its a beast

 

[tomthetreeman]

I'll give it to Dave, then. Yes there was a request for natives, but Sophora is common enough. No one actually listens to the dour Mr. Xman anyway.

Dan, this is not 'Nam. This is Trees from a Distance. There are rules.

All yours Tom, Computer is shittin' the bed currently. No pictures to speak of.

 

[robinia]

I thought that tree looked familiar! I've seen a photo of it before. Maybe in Arborist News?

 

[tomthetreeman]

Alrighty, then. Another from the Morton.

-Tom

 

[Dan_Watkins]

Hell, there are no rules here - we're trying to accomplish something.
