| This was the best pictures I could get at the moment, can get more later if needed. Thank you  I know I should know what this is.  One of the trunk. |

| I should know what that is too but the bark is really throwing me off. Sure hope someone knows. Where is Viburnum Valley when you need him? |

| At 1:09 a.m., I was fast asleep under 3 cats. This morning, we're manning the booth at Lexington Farmers Market. The first photo is a nice clump of pinnate compound leaves. Arrangement isn't immediately evident because you don't show attachment to stem. Second photo is a great shot of young bark on this species - along with a lot of Boxelder Maple (Acer negundo) compound foliage with opposite arrangement, which does NOT belong to the species in question. That's a young Black Walnut - Juglans nigra. Pinch off some leaflets and crush - the scent is unmistakeable and memorable. John |

| Thank you very much. I should have put in the post about the boxelder maples, probably threw some people off. Now I have to figure out what to do with these trees, they cannot stay there.  The black walnut has a really bad crook in the trunk near the base. I may end up air layering it into a couple trees.  Thank you again for all the help. You all are the best.😀 |

| "I may end up air layering it into a couple of trees." I would sure like to know your results on that. Keep us posted on it? As far as the Box Elders I consider them trash. Very weak wood. As they get older limbs die and fall off and they end up looking like...well, you know. YMMV. I have more than I want in my little woods. Though I will keep one somewhere just for the sake of diversity. |
