| Try looking at Tung Oil tree- I not sure but what I can see... So many roads to take, choices to make, and laughs to share! |

| The leaves are wrong for Tung Oil/Vernicia fordii; likewise for Catalpa - both have sort of heart-shaped leaved. Yours could be some type of nut tree. Edited to add: Is there any way you can add a larger photo of the second image? Thank you. Sunset Zone 28, AHS Heat Zone 9, USDA zone 8b~"Leaf of Faith" |

greene said:Looks like a good possibility: I notice that greene's link says that the name should be X. sorbifolium rather than sorbifolia as we have in the database. The ICBN seems to support that so I've posted a query on the database forum. I was surprised that Xanthocerus sorbifolia/um is apparently hardy to zone 4 - I want one! |

| According to Flora, this is a small tree/shrub, hardy in zones 6-9, but needs high temps to set nuts. |

| Hmmm.....what I saw had it hardier than that...will check again...someone else said it was hardy to zone 4 I could be wrong... and..... "maybe I should have kept my mouth shut....." The Urge for Seeds is Strong in This One..... |

| Missouri Botanical lists it as good for zones 4-7... Digging Dog says hardy to zone 4... I could be wrong... and..... "maybe I should have kept my mouth shut....." The Urge for Seeds is Strong in This One..... |

Botanica says zones 6 to 10. Sunset doesn't list it at all.  |

| Dunno...but Lyle, Washington is listed as USDA Zone 7a on one site and 7b on another site.... I could be wrong... and..... "maybe I should have kept my mouth shut....." The Urge for Seeds is Strong in This One..... |
