Trees from a distance

[oldoakman]

No.

 

[oldoakman]

Ok gentlemen, last hint. Think monkeys and weasels from china.

 

[Jonny]

Chinese mulberry?

 

[oldoakman]

Be more specific. Genus and specific epithet would be best.

 

[Jonny]

Morus alba

 

[Jonny]

 

[oldoakman]

Not morus. Keep looking. Look back at one of the previous hints.

 

[Jonny]

Broussonetia papyrifera

 

[oldoakman]

[Serf Life]

[oldoakman]

Jeez

What?

 

[Serf Life]

The guessing started June 16th, good tricky one @oldoakman . That’s a new genus to me, love this thread.

 

[Jonny]

Really enjoyed learning about the paper mulberry. Full disclosure, wouldn’t have gotten close without the hints and google. Really fascinating tree that they say was incredibly useful in prehistoric times for clothing and paper.

I’ll have a pic up later this afternoon.

 

[Jonny]

Ok I suck. Anyone got something?

[Basswood]

[Jonny]

Not sure, but it’s beautiful.
Some kind of fagus?

 

[Basswood]

Nope.
