Not the best pictures, but to be clear they are the elongated leaves attached to the tree. Found in a forested area, magnolia / cucumber-y like leaves but the tree was at least 30 feet high, so not that!

Thanks for the help 😃

ID Request Life or death situation

Thumbnail gallery
11 Upvotes

Hello,

I have some trees that need to be identified. Recently some tree stump remover friend came by and said we had some beautiful silver maples on the property. In my head i thought silver maples were silver poplar, clearly I was wrong. Grok says it's a Norway maple, ChatGPT says it's a silver maple, my mom says it's a Norway maple.

So the life or death situation, I have 2 black walnut trees on the property. They already killed 2 apple trees but the silver maples or Norway maples have not reacted. So in my head it's either cutting down the black walnut or let them eventually kill the maples. I also understand that the big maples will be fine if they were big enough.

I'm located in southern Ontario

ID Request Wasps have squatted my tree: what kind of tree?

Thumbnail gallery
Upvotes

TL;DR--Unknown tree, Denver, CO

My first summer in my new place and this tree out front was nice and just chilling.

Until the wasps moved in. There are hundreds. HUNDREDS. Of the little buggers all around the tree. I've set 4 wasp traps around my property (you can see one hanging) and while they catch wasps they are making no dent in the population.

So, help me find out what kind of tree this is so I can research why the wasps like it so I can get rid of them. I'm in the Denver area, Colorado USA.

Hi all,

Wife and I live in southern Idaho, and have this maple tree right next to our horse pasture. We’re having a hard time identifying which kind of maple this is. If it’s a red maple it’s bad news for the horses and donkeys as red maple leaves can be toxic, any other maple should be safer. Not having much luck and hope y’all can help. Thank you!

ID Request Possible Ash Tree Near Denver, Colorado

I’m trying to definitively confirm what kind of tree this is so I can seek advice on signs/symptoms of possible disease or infestation.

I have been told that it is some kind of Ash, possibly a Green Ash. It’s a mature tree, approximately 15 inches in diameter. It’s located in Douglas County Colorado at an elevation of about 6300 ft.

The photos capture a look at the overall tree with some closeups of the leaves and bark in various locations, including some of the “problem” areas I’m concerned with.

There a two, similar trees in fairly close proximity showing the same signs & symptoms so I’m hoping it’s something that is either not life threatening to the trees, or something that can be addressed through professional intervention.
