    Book help

    Thank you, your a star! I did have that website (world checklist from kew) but never saved it as a favorite and when I tried to find it again, could I remember what it was called, nope! Couldn't navigate the kew website either, but now I know where to find it so your a double star:lol: Sent from Rob's GalaxySII

    Book help

    Does anybody have the book 'NEW EDITION OF THE INTERNATIONAL CODE OF NOMENCLATURE FOR CULTIVATED PLANTS' or similar editions, i need to find when the cultivar Fagus sylvatica 'Luteovariegata' was first cultivated and introduced here, hoping there are some clues in this book Thanks Robin
  7. How very dare you be so blahzay about identification:lol:! Lovely oak though:biggrin: Sent from Rob's GalaxySII
  8. Had it been fully ID'd as Lucombe Oak, is someone sure? You know me and my ID's, I like to be accurate:001_rolleyes: Sent from Rob's GalaxySII
  9. Haha, thats one way of sitting down on the job!
  10. possible but Ficus have 5 lobes not 4
  11. haha, you have to be quicker than that:001_smile:
  12. could be a young Liriodendron tulipifera - The Tulip tree, but that would be a complete and utter guess and don't hold me to it:biggrin:
  13. do you reckon you could have a go at drawing the leaf? Or getting a pic:lol: Could it be a catalpa? Or a Liriodendron? Or a.....?
  14. On a general note i NEED to visit more arboreta, i've been missing out..!! These were at ness gardens, university of liverpool gardens in the wirral
  15. sequoia sempervirens with "witches broom" although not the clearest shots, this is rarely documented on this species. In fact this tree was grown from a witches broom and the genetic trait has carried on in its progeny Also this betula pendula with a long low side limb:biggrin:
  16. If those cones/fruit on the branch are spiky its a Xanthocyparis nootkatensis or the Nootka cypress, If the cones/fruit aren't spiky its a Chamaecyparis pisifera cultivar, which one i couldn't say. Gut says go with the nootka, and if it is it could be the 'pendula' variety which looks like this and would have nothing wrong with it. If it wasn't it could be a number of things, nootka are apparently susceptible to aphid, honey fungus and phytophthara problems hope that helps a bit
  17. nice images:thumbup:
  18. 9.7, I'm getting worse:lol:
  19. haha, like I said in my original post, Sent from Rob's GalaxySII

  23. Why would you go back to the truck for "handles etc..."??? You wouldn't! You'd take them with you just as you would a felling bar or wedges if you needed those! That's just common sense... Sent from Rob's GalaxySII
