Query - what kind of tree is this ?
Mar 1, 2022 18:52:41 #
Many of the folk on here either
garden or farm, so I was hoping
someone could enlighten me -
what kind of tree is this ?
Being from the northeast, I had
never seen one until I moved here,
and am curious as to what's growing just outside my door ! Can anyone identify it for me ?
The photos show the leaves and
seed pods h*****g from long,
slender shoots from the bigger,
main branches - have never seen
a tree with such large seed-pod clusters before, either ! Does
anyone know what kind of tree
this is ? - Thank you in advance
for any light shed on this question !

not an olive tree, leaves are not narrow like an olive tree has.

No clue A. Looks very close to catalpa or mulberry, but no idea what those berries (?) could be.

Thought about including this in the earlier post, but was hoping the leaf shape and seed-pods would be enough to make an identification !
Tulip tree ? That's a new one on
me ! Mom used to grow tulips in
her flower garden, but I've never
heard of (or seen) them growing on trees ! I don't recall ever seeing any flowers of any kind or color on this tree - the bark looks (to me) a lot
like the crêpe-skin on my arms
lately !
Maybe the earlier photo doesn't
show them well enough, but those look a lot more like seed-pods than berries - don't recall seeing berries, either !
(Is there a botanist in the house ?)

Tulip is the state tree of Indiana where I grew up. They get beautiful flowers in the spring and summer. They're called "tulip" tree because of the showy flowers, but they're actually a poplar.

Big A, try this App for your phone. Take a picture of the tree leaves and it should tell you. The leaves almost look like a Tallow tree.

The striped maple leaf looks right but the seed pod doesn't match

How about a cottonwood?
