For recording when her tree came into leaf? These Honours really are getting worthless!

Oak has come out before ash every year in memory.

Those old poems are total bs.

Not BS here. Been spot on for the last 20 years plus.

Down here ash is very variable, some are still in bud and some have quite a few leaves open. The early openers have been hit by the frost last week, might have a bit more this coming week.

Ash was very late last year but ash, oak beech and sycamore all about the same this year.

Where they tasty?

Oak , not oats.

Not had my oats for ages cum to think of it.

 

And anyway , it's "were" not where.

Round here Ash is always last to leaf and first to drop.

[Farmer Tom]

Round here Ash is always last to leaf and first to drop.

 

It's always amazed me how fast growing they are, considering they spend so long leafless.

 

Beech, Aesculus and Sycamore ahead here, followed by Oak and then Ash.

Ash is flowering, but no leaves.

Actually I saw one today, thought "sh1t that's dead, ... no wait...."

 

I read somewhere that Ash opens its leaves dependent upon temperature and Oak dependent upon day length.

That would make Oak open its leaves roughly the same time each year.
