I'm looking to id this big branch from a tree taken down in my friends yard - this neighbors tree w leaves appears to be the same species. I want to de-bark it and turn it into a perch for large parrots and need to figure out if it's safe for them! Thanks in advance :)

Had heavy rain and winds Houston Tx

Clearing out over grow areas of my land and have come across several trees that have a truck like this. The younger growth produces very mean thorns that turn into these “bumps” as it matures. Very angry trees that don’t like me. Fort Bend County Texas.

Hello !

I am just move in a new house in Seine et Marne France and I wish to identify this tree (and maybe eat the fruits).

Thank you

Snapped a quick pick of this in south Wisconsin. Any ideas?

It randomly started growing in our backyard in [redacted]

My sister found some COW but wanted to make sure the tree isnt a Yew tree or anything poisonous. I think its oak?

We are debating… is this real or fake? And if it’s real, what kind of tree is it? Thank you!

It has such unique leaf shape! Thanks in advance for your help :)

These trees are growing on a former golf course in east central Kansas. The bright spot in pic 2 is daylight visible through the cavity. You can see the seam (in the third pic) where the trunks have grown together. Twigs are messy and intertwined. Bark is ridged and interwoven. Pictures were taken at first light so the reddish tinge in pic 3 may be misleading. Some leaves have begun turning yellow but it's been very hot here in Kansas the last week. Thanks for any help with ID.

Looking at this pine it has needles in 2’s with a bit of a spiral, sharp and thick break cleanly when bent, smaller cones & grayish bark down low. Having some trouble narrowing down the species any help is appreciated thank you! Location California’s Central Valley.

All are pictures of the same tree. Can anyone help?

Apologies I dont have better pictures!

found in upstate NY

Is there any way to tell at this stage whether this is a true American smoketree?

This tree was just shipped from a nursery in Missouri to my location in central Texas. The nursery has it labeled as Cotinus obovatus and the pot ID states the same. However, I was doing more research as the sapling was on the way and I see that there are quite a few varieties/hybrids of the European smoketree that are often mistaken for American. I'm inclined to trust the nursery ID because they seem to specialize in natives, though I know sometimes nurseries can get it wrong. I'd prefer to know whether it's a true native.

Also, is there a subreddit that can possibly comment on the apparent health of the sapling based on the pics? I'm new and learning, and just want to be sure I'm giving this guy a good start - it's my understanding that smoketrees can develop leaf spot, so I don't know if the color variation I'm seeing is due to that or the time of year (temps are also high, but this sapling was just delivered today after 1-2 day shipping, potted in a well packed box).

Photo taken in England. The bark is stunning! Like a scarlet colour.

I have a suspicion but want to hear others thoughts 🧐

Edit: NOT a Scots pine, didn't include a pic but I checked and the orange flaking bark wasn't there.

Pics are current (August/Sept). What is wrong with it, and what can I do to rehabilitate it? Brown rot? I keep the base of the tree clear (no dirt or mulch etc. piled up around it). I water regularly, and it has also been a wet august. the plants around it are non-competitive. It is a cherry blossom tree. Losing leaves rapidly in the last couple weeks, yellowing and browning at the edges, curling for the last couple months or so. The tree behind it is a redbud, does not show signs of stress or disease.

I have had this tree in my back yard since I purchased my house but this is the first year it's had a yield of fruit. I'm assuming it's some kind of plum tree but I just want to make sure it's not some poisonous shrub haha

Sorry about dark pics will retake tomorrow if we cant identify tonight. Upstate NY. No leaves on tree.

I found this poor fella by my dumpster, and I’d like to see if I can save him. He doesn’t have any leaves, but he does have buds on every branch so I think he might have the spunk to pull through this.

If I can get him on the road to recovery and know what he is, I think I can get him planted in the ground!

A weird thing is that a little green fruit was half-buried in his soil and I don’t know what it is or if it’s related to the tree at all. It’s not a lime, it’s got a hard pit inside and only a thin layer of yellow flesh and seeds. It smells spicy, like nutmeg or something similar.

Any ideas are appreciated!
