Trees from a distance

[oldoakman]

Aaa... No way, err Norway Maple. Best example I've seen in a while. Happy St. Paddy's day to all!

That tree looks to be in "Le Meilleur" (the best) of condition.

I'm gonna go with Ash.

'Tis not a Norway, Laddies...

Liquidambar styraciflua?

 

[CutHighnLetFly]

Quercus velutina

 

[tomthetreeman]

No, you guys are getting colder… That olive-green lichen tends to like these trees' trunks. Not sure if that helps, but I see that color lichen on these more than other trees.

Linden

No, but WAY warmer! Bark is lighter in color, more tan than grey. Buds look similar and could be mistaken easily for each other.

[oldoakman]

OK Basswood then.

 

[tomthetreeman]

No, not a Linden at all, but similar qualities as mentioned. Leaves, buds, fruit, lots of similarities IMO. This is an introduced tree with native relatives.

[oldoakman]

I'm at a loss without a little more help. Probably as you say, something easy.

 

[Treezybreez]

Broussonetia papyrifera?

 

[tomthetreeman]

Leaves are toothed and cordate, like Linden. Seeds are samaras, like Linden. Buds and twigs are strongly alternate, with roundish, red, swelling buds, like Linden. Tree is an introduced species with native cousins.

That oughta do it!!!

[robinia]

That looks like Ulmus procera

 

[tomthetreeman]

No, but you're smokin' now!

 

[jon427]

Coming up on 48 hours. Poop or get off the pot.
