Trees from a distance

[Basswood]

Sophora?

 

[Stumpsprouts]

Elaborate Stump.

It looks like a very big crape myrtle.

 

[Neill]

Nice one! Lagerstroemia indica “Arapaho”?

 

[oldoakman]

Stumpy got it first. This is at the Atlanta Botanical Gardens. It is huge!

 

[Basswood]

Damn nice! I actually thought that at first but thought the bark looked like it was fissured when I zoomed in.

Do you know what variety? I feel like if Neill got it he should be next to post!

I am told it is a species form that is the base for all the cultivars that have been developed. I don't know how accurate that statement is.

So straight up lagerstroemia indica I guess?
I’ll defer to you @Stumpsprouts seeing as you did get it first.
Nice photo @oldoakman

The couch is still available.
Which is to say, no to all.

 

[Neill]

Osage ??

 

[Basswood]

No way it’s apricot right?

 

[ATH]

Crataegus

​

 

[Stumpsprouts]

Not yet. It’s form has been influenced by routine pruning (not by me), so it appears more short and stout than it otherwise would be.

 

[Mick Dempsey]

Mulberry.
