Trees from a distance

[trees4ever]

Hi Xman- No offense taken.
I grew up with two brothers and a neighborhood of mostly male energy

... so no worries...

I think women just like the trees because they have a light and graceful appearance (when they aren't suffering from the wilt).

Mimosas are native to Iran and over to central China... definitely a hot(and dry)climate which would allow the tree to thrive since those conditions are not very conducive for the wilt.

Sorry Tom.
I'm not used to seeing parrotia in a multi-stemmed form. We have four on campus, but they are all single stemmed. They seem to make nice little trees.

TNT, you didn't have a chance! T-hill was on that like lightning! That was fast! I wouldn't have gotten it that fast, with no leaves and all. According to a nursery friend of mine, they are actually difficult to keep single stemmed when young.

(PS - Diane, Parrotia is native to Iran, too!)

Here's a nice little tree for ya. Shouldn't be too difficult.

 

[tomthetreeman]

Cornus mas (could also be officianalis, the difference is almost imperceptible). I love those trees!

Ah Tom. On the ball as always.
Cool little trees. The fruit are edible, and I usually make a point of making everyone that is working with me when it ripens eat one. They aren't bad.

 

[tomthetreeman]

I eat my Kousa dogwood fruit sometimes... Whatever the squirrels don't get!

 

[tomthetreeman]

Here's another... I'm pretty sure you guys are gonna nail this one quick:

[TNTree_man]
