Neither of those. It's a problematic street tree. That ought to do it.

Isn't Pyrus calleryanna "problamatic"? Even banned in places?

 

[tomthetreeman]

Callery Pear are invasive South of the Mason/Dixon. It's not that, though. Different problems.

PS it's mostly 'Bradford' that is banned.

Sweet Gum.

 

[tomthetreeman]

Seems like interest is waning in my ugly-azz street tree. Clues? It's known for heaving sidewalks, among other nuisance issues.

[tomthetreeman]

Yes indeed. Well, actually it's more of a Beat-Gum.

 

[theXman]

Hooray for myself!

Okay post one in 5 minutes, then gotta hit the bed.

 

[theXman]

Okay, I think this will be a really hard one.

Was going to put up a really easy one, or a hard one.

I won't likely be able to view answers until tomorrow night, trying to work a lot with the decent frozen weather before Christmas.

So, I'll give some hints right away on this one.

Not native.

small tree to medium tree.

very unique fruit or seed, imo.

That's what gives it it's common name I would think.

 

[Waldo]

stewartia sinensis

 

[tomthetreeman]

Looks a little like an Evodia.
