Quercus faginea ?

Hi, Thanks a lot for your inputs. I am currently hesitating between Gunnersbury Park, Battersea Park and Cannizaro Park. What do you think ? A few links : http://www.treeregister.org/treecollections/london.shtml https://www.forestry.gov.uk/PDF/FCTP007.pdf/$FILE/FCTP007.pdf http://gunnersburyfriends.org/Documents/Heritage Tree Survey Jan 2014 reduced size.pdf

Hi Steve, Yes, only trees accessible by the subway. I am not going to Kew, as I have only half a day.
-
Hi, I am going to London in a few weeks. Could someone recommend a nice tree tour ? I am interested in rare species, especially oaks. I will move using the subway. Thanks !
-
I would rather say an elm, possibly ulmus lobel
-
the second one looks like pterocarya to me.
-
Interesting tree but no clue what it is

Do really the hazel leaves belong to the big tree ? For me, hazel doesn't fit with the whithish leaves and the bark. -
Maybe its a Ulmus laevis. They are less affected. http://www.resistantelms.co.uk/ulmus-laevis/

looks like Deilephila elpenor
-
Excellent website, I have learnt a lot there, thanks for sharing

FYI, there is a taxonomic revision regarding sorbus trees https://helda.helsinki.fi/bitstream/handle/10138/230914/Sennikov_Kurtto_2017.pdf?sequence=1 Some new species have been recently identified (and given a name).

Sorbus x thuringiaca ? https://www.florealpes.com/fiche_sorbusxthuringiaca.php

There is a book about that : Tree roots in the built environment
-
I don't have one. I am just asking for the sake of curiosity, because I am considering planting some.

According to http://powo.science.kew.org/taxon/urn:lsid:ipni.org:names:60450399-2, "The wood is close-grained and easily worked. In India it is carved and used to make pots, boxes, spoons, and the like." According to ,http://www.pfaf.org/User/Plant.aspx?LatinName=Aesculus+indica, "Wood - soft, close grained. Used for construction, cases, spoons, cups etc" This tree has been widely planted in London city parks.

Hi, horse chestnut (Aesculus hippocastanum) timber has quite a poor reputation. Is indian horse chestnut (Aesculus indica) timber any better (for firewood, as well as for other uses) ?
-
We now know a lot about trees, their association with plenty of bacteria, mushrooms (mycorrhizae), earthworms, the role of the decomposing organic matter that feeds them.... So, how can a tree survive in an urban environment, in the midst of concrete or grass, in a compacted and closed soil, with no decomposing organic matter ? See https://efuf2016.wordpress.com/2016/03/17/resilience/ There are plenty of handsome urban trees. How do they do ?
-
This should be easy, and the tree is pretty
jmx replied to Levantine's topic in Tree Identification pictures
possibly Ailanthus altissima, or another Ailanthus -
corylus colurna ?
-
It's unlikely that those figs will be fertile, though First record in Europe of seedlings of Ficus macrophylla
-
Oh yes, they look a lot like the figs of Ficus macrophylla actually http://www.virboga.de/Ficus_macrophylla.htm The size, the inside of the fruit, and the pedicel ; everything seems to match... Thanks a lot !

Melia azedarach are the ones on the left side, but I am asking about the ones on the right side.
