Wellhello

Oh I've just seen your post EdwardC

What do you think it is if not Sorbus aria.

It's outside a cafe, they don't know what it is, there's no label.

Thanks all.. Sorbus aria Aurea looks very similar certainly the leaves. What about the reddish trunk?

Someone offline suggested Alnus Incana Aurea Tree?

What do you think?

Thanks really appreciate you ruling birch out was frantically looking through species with copper rose trunks! The leaves aren't birch at all as you both say...

I see, so the leaf colour might be misleading.

It's in a pot outside a cafe in Kilkenny Ireland where I'm visiting family. They don't seem to know what type of tree it is.

I'll try to take a couple of better photos tomorrow to post.

Do you think Sorbus Aria or Sorbus Aria Lutescens? Sorry if I'm asking something very obvious .. I'm a bit new to the gardening world!!

Thanks.. I looked at that. I thought Sorbus aria leaves weren't such a lime green colour and didn't think the bark was such a reddish brown? Or am I wrong?

I wondered whether the trunk texture looked like a birch?

Sorry better photo here...

Hello, I'm new to this site.. And to gardening in fact! Trying to find a tree for a small courtyard garden. Would absolutely love to plant this tree but can't work out what it is... Any ideas?
