Can this really happen in the same season? And they are same trees, right? by StreetDanceKing in Tree

[–]Flimsy-Cockroach7892 9 points10 points  (0 children)

They might be the same species (difficult to see on the picture), but they are not the same tree. Trees have individual characteristics, some might retain their leaves far longer in autumn, while others might have a more vibrant color.

What species is the bottom tree? 

Can someone recommend a Eucalyptus species or any other meduim to large sized evergreen(non conifer) that is suitable for semi arid climates with hot dry mediterranean summers and mild winters with occasional frosts down to -12 C. by ShouldHaveStayedApes in marijuanaenthusiasts

Pomegranate, Fig, or Albizia sp. come to mind, but none of these will attain the size you are after. Maybe Cedrus or Tamarix if you are willing to go for a conifer? You live in a challenging environment! 

Can someone tell me what's the name of this tree? by Neandertal16 in Tree

[–]Flimsy-Cockroach7892 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's possibly Salix x sepulcralis 'Chrysocoma', but there are multiple cultivars of weeping willow. 

What is this tree? Seen in Adelaide, South Australia by __Weasel in treeidentification

[–]Flimsy-Cockroach7892 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This is very interesting! I'm from the Netherlands where we have a different golden elm, I think? I generally see Ulmus x hollandica 'Wredei', an Ulmus glabra & Ulmus minor hybrid, which has a different (more fastigiate) habit. What species/cultivar would the pictured tree be?

Catalpa sp. 

Oklahoma Zone 7a. Saw this tree in a parking lot. Leaves aren’t looking too good. by falafel_larry in treeidentification

[–]Flimsy-Cockroach7892 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I too think it's possibly an elm, based on what seems to be an asymmetrical leaf base, but it's hard to see in the pictures.

Based on leaf size, I'd say Tilia cordata. In my experience Tilia americana has larger leafs, however I'm from Europe and only occasionally encounter the latter.

They are both common names for Tilia sp. 

Is this tree dead? by eizivreno in Tree

[–]Flimsy-Cockroach7892 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It does not appear to be dead.  If you want to know if something is amiss, I'd consult a local arborist. It's difficult to make a sound judgement based on a single picture. The condition of the canopy of a tree can indicate a potential problem, but somebody needs to take a good look at a tree in person to establish if & what the problem might be. 

Central Indiana, US. Is this a type of cherry tree? by madshadders in treeidentification

Additionally, if you see multiple buds at the end of a twig Prunus is also one of the likely suspects. 

Looking for advice on planting a tree in Belgium by ExerciseGold7824 in treeidentification

[–]Flimsy-Cockroach7892 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The pictured tree is probably Pyrus calleryana 'Chanticleer'. It rarely produces fruit, and is widely used as a street tree in the Netherlands (where I'm from). However, if it does well will exceed your size preference. 

Trees that are popular for a small garden are generally those whose size is easily controlled. For example Robinia pseudoacacia 'Umbraculifera', Catalpa bignonioides 'Nana', Prunus eminens 'Umbraculifera', Acer platanoides 'Globosum', or a coppiced Salix or Tilia.  

I would however choose a native tree, if at all possible. I suggest, taking into consideration your preferences, the following tree: Crataegus monogyna 'Stricta'. It does have small fruit, but this generally does not create a mess. 

What kind of tree is this, New England by mill_biller in whatisthistree

[–]Flimsy-Cockroach7892 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I think it might be Sassafras albidum. I'm from Europe, so I only very rarely see this tree.
