What tree is this? Seems exotic

[jmonkfish]

I have never seen a tree like this before. Bark like Cedar, but leaves are very different. Bright yellow-orange needle-like fruit shows up in the spring/summer. Any ideas?

mimosa may be

[jmonkfish]

It's an evergreen, fruit may be a fungus... Not sure if that helps. No flowers.

cut-leaved walnut has similar foliage and bark.

Is it in the uk?

i'd say not looking at the house behind it.

 

looks stateside.

Possibly Grevillea?

That is a silk oak tree. Very common in Florida. Dirty, brittle and having a shallow root system that will be doing enough damage to the foundation of the house in the picture.

You could not pay me to have a tree like that in my yard and I never planted one for any of my customers. Wood is good for smoke. Other than that nothing wrong with it at all. I would not be surprised if that picture was in Florida based on the housing and other landscape material surround the tree.

Ted, wondering if your Silk Oak is the same as our Silky Oak or Grevillea?

[se7enthdevil]

you are talking about the same tree i think, Grevillea robusta. a cracking looking timber in my opinion.
