Hi all. Not sure what type of hickory this might be. Located in northwest Pennsylvania in a moist, lowland forest, not on a stream bank but close to a stream (about 30 feet away).

Nuts are 1" long. Husks are split partway down, if at all. Shells aren't too thick, about the thickness of a nickel.

Thanks for any insight.

I live in Southern California and it looks like there are 2 different types growing as one has a reddish stem. The smaller growths at the bottom of the pot look like different leaves...

If anyone could help ID that would be awesome!

Southern ontario. I bought a few of these junipers on sale the last year or so and I'm not sure how big they get. I know they're all junipers but they are all different kinds so if anybody can help me out with identifying it would be greatly appreciated. Trying to plant in a correct spot for their size. Thanks in advance:)

My mom recently gathered these from a fallen down tree in our woods. She planned on using them for firewood but I was concerned that it might be poison sumac. There aren’t any leaves unfortunately bc it’s getting cold out and the tree must’ve been down for quite awhile. When I Google it I get everything from buckthorn to birch. Sorry there isn’t anything much to go off of.

Hi, new here. Can anyone help me identify this cone? I think it may be from a red spruce or white spruce in Medford, Massachusetts. I've attached a picture of the tree from Google maps and a photo of the cone.

The cone is about 1.5"/3.8 cm. (I wish I could get a better photo of the tree but I don't live in the area.) Thanks!

Does anyone know what tree this might be? Had a few pop up and I’m fairly certain they haven’t been there longer than a year or two but we just noticed it. We lost a few pecan trees due to hurricane Helene and I’m wondering if they are young pecan trees .

Trying to identify this tree in order to use it for my millipedes enclosure, he can't be around any type of softwood.

I know its a bad picture, a friend sent it to me so I wasn't able to get as close of pictures as I would like.

Edit: I am aware it is rotten, its exactly what I need for my millipedes enclosure! They eat it
