  1. Another photo from same tree a few weeks previous. Next time i will take photo of bark. Thanks
  2. Thanks will check next time Im there. I was thinking Walnut due to the pinnate leaf arrangement. Maybe ailanthus or hickory, but not familiar with any of species. There were several trees similar nearby, but didnt want to muddy the waters with more pics. All trees had really large catkins, the biggest I have seen.
  3. Can anyone help on this one? Was thinking walnut - juglans? Thanks
  4. Ive since been advised it may be: Quercus x hispanica 'Fulhamensis' But cannot be certain
  5. Many thanks for the help. Not seen this one before, obviously the leaves would have helped me a few months later.
  6. Can someone please confirm? Spotted it when working away last week, and not familiar with the species. As opposite twigs it may be Acer, but green twigs? Any help gratefully received. Thanks
  7. Looks like poplar. Could be a chance its an aspen, which is also populus.
  8. Leaves look like a sessile oak to me. Any acorn evidence?
  9. Some wonderful trees, need to visit East Anglia, ashamed to say Ive never been
  10. I wonder whether anyone can confirm whether this is a Cork Oak. Ive seen some in Arboretums, but none as big as the one in these pics. I would like to formally measure and register it, but so many Evergreen Oak, and wonder if anyone think it may be otherwise. Im not sure if it produces Acorns yet, and no evidence of any on the ground. Could be Lucombe, but leaves look different, more pronounced and distinctive teeth, also bark seems more fissured. The tree lives in South West England, photos taken Late December 2013. Any help/ comments would be appreciated.
  11. Correct, well done. Celtis Australis. Tucked away in a car park Less than 100m off the busy Shirley High Street, Grove Road Southampton.
  12. Last clue is it is of the Celtis family.
  13. Similar in appearance, not related, not Elm family. I saw several on a recent visit to Barcelona, in parks. This is the only one I have identified in the UK, and that was thanks to asking the proprietor, and subsequently confirming the spot in Champion Trees book.
  14. Not a Beech Im afraid I agree beech much larger. Camera angle is deceptive, but not deliberately so, its the only angle I could get unless I wanted to scale a wall or trespass. Its a fairly uncommon species in UK, and not native.
  15. Close, but its not a Zelkova. The leaf would be a giveaway, as distinctive.
  16. This is a confirmed UK Champion Tree (Owen Johnson book), taken a few Months ago (November 2013). Can anyone identify>? Sorry for a poor photo, but it was my phone, and was restricted due to urban location, If not Ill post the answer in a few days
  17. Looks like Lucombe Oak leaves to me.
  18. I agree that it is a species of Red Oak (Rugosa). Two (red) sub species it may be are: Quercus Shumardi (Shumard Oak). Quercus Texana (Nutall Oak, Texan Red Oak). Im no expert, so please excuse me if you feel my judgement is impaired.
  19. BTW - this is a recent photo (Jan 14), its not the Champion Lucombe that fell few years back. However, the reminants of the Champion still remain in the Phear Park.
  20. I concur its a Lucombe Oak. Attached is a large Lucombe in Phear Park, Exmouth, beautiful tree.
