Trees from a distance

[tomthetreeman]

None of those... This tree has a very popular cousin that is a shrub.

 

[pigwot]

Lauraceae?

 

[TreeLogic]

Magnolia kobus

 

[tomthetreeman]

No. It's in the Oleaceae family.

 

[Adkpk]

Syringa reticulata

 

[pigwot]

Fraxinus excelsior

..cousin being the Forsythia?

[Adkpk]

She's a beauty eh? Do guess at both trees but the one on the left is the prize winner!

 

[tomthetreeman]

?Cedar of Lebanon?

 

[Adkpk]

It is not a cedar of lebanon. But none-the-less I must reveal to you for a debonair shot at it that it is in fact a cedar.

 

[ginkobalboa]

Atlas cedar?

 

[Adkpk]

Not from Atlas

 

[tomthetreeman]

Cedrus deodara???

 

[Adkpk]

That is correct. Why the question marks, Tom. It doesn't look like a deodara to you? The tree to the right is red oak.

 

[tomthetreeman]

??? Were just to differentiate from earlier posts.

 

[tomthetreeman]

Here's a good one...

 

[pigwot]

Quercus acutissima

 

[tomthetreeman]

Nice! One of my favorite trees. I thought this one would be tougher. Yer'up!

 

[pigwot]

Wow, surprised I got it with this crappy phone screen resolution. It's one of my favorites, too; guests arriving; will scare one up soon...

 

[pigwot]

Here's one; the tree in the middle, the one behind the house.
