Dutch elm disease is also transmitted by invasive elm bark beetles.

Great video! Don't you think the tree @6:30 is also a hickory? Bark looks suspicious, and branching seems possibly alternate when you zoom into the crown. Edit: 41:29 is an awesome geological pastry demonstration. Love it!

Brilliant. Thank you again!

I live in Maine and am a trim trees I found this tree ,not knowing what it was I saved the nuts and am going to plaint the nut on my land . I identified the shell and nut shape I hope to have 30 trees painted next year. Better than putting them in a chipper

Can you help me understand something that I clearly don’t understand? In my experience these grow quite well in my area, Lexington Kentucky, but they don’t reseed there. There’s many of them planted around but it’s very rare to see a seedling. I know they’re making seeds, I don’t know if they’re germinating and failing, or if they don’t even sprout… they grow and seed freely about 50 miles from me, there’s even an old homestead about 8 miles from me, there are 2 old large poplar, presumably they were planted about 150 years ago, the area has rewilded and been left to hunters and wildlife, there are a slew of trees that I’d guess are 40-60 years old and then there are a decent amount of trees that are younger as well as fresh seedlings with decent recruitment… I realize there’s many plants that will survive in locations that they can’t colonize, all the magnolias native here are the same, but in this case, I fail to understand what is missing here. Conditions seem so similar

These are the best tree identification videos. You do great work.

This has confused me ever since I moved to a home with many species of mature, wild nut trees growing around it. Thank you for explaining.

Thank you this is EXCELLENT. I cant wait to hike this forest when back in New London area!

Great video, thanks for leaf comparisons, that was really helpful information

You gotta get these guys in late spring for folks. They’re just the best

Love all the big leaf magnolias!

Both hackberry trees with the exaggerated bark and hackberry trees without it are on our property. And some of the hackberry trees have small branches growing in every direction, mostly in the lower section of it. I'm not talking about witches' brooms; I know what that looks like. So far no one has been able to identify these trees. Can anyone tell me what this is? I can send a photo if you are interested.

just like the coyote and Canada geese the habitat and distribution of the Eastern red cedar expanded due to human impact on the environment

This is a great video of a special forest relationship. Thank you very much! the Osprey is also an added BONUS. Keep up the great work. one of a kind on youtube and thank you again!

Fantastic video

Reminds me of my Dendrology labs in college.....Quercus marilandica

These are seriously the best vids I’ve found online for tree ID! These really help me a lot! I spend a good amount of time outdoors… I can ID most trees I encounter down to genus, with many trees that’s good enough… not the oaks tho… super easy to ID them as an oak but sorting out the species can really be tough

Thanks for these! You may not have high view count… but the views you get… man we get a lot from these vids!

Well done sir. Thank you!

What a different adventure today....so many new trees, that 90 degree angles of the post oak...seems like a good evolutionary trait in unstable soil.

Great video, seeing that blackjack oak I now think I’ve saw it here in my area of KY, I had saw it a few times on sandstone dry ridges and had always been uncertain until now, for some reason I was thinking it wasn’t on the range map so I had been dismissing it

All the Ash are gone here in CT. Looks like all the Beech are on their way out as well. The forest floor looks to be really coming alive with trees lying.

great video. Oh, what would I give for marked timings when which tree shows up in the video

I planted one on my property about 10 years ago and it's one of my favorite trees (or large shrubs) I have. Mine is grown as a single-trunk tree. There is nothing else like it and it's the first thing people ask about when they come to my house because not a lot of people plant them. In a home landscape with a little more sun than the understory of a forest, the flower show is incredible, and lasts for quite some time. Only caveat is you have to give it room to grow horizontally, because that's what it does, and what makes it so unique looking.

Sure these are black spruce and not P. rubens? I've only see mariana in swamps in the Dacks. Red spruce is more of a mountain tree. Btw, I just found your channel and love it!

Hi great video thanks I need help identifying. I'm in Minneapolis area Mn. And I found a small shrub like dwarf , looks like a small elm leaf hybrid multiplying like crazy in this lady's backyard for about 10 to 12 years. she was just not aware that it is the worst root and was growing into her chain link fence. Hundreds and hundreds of them and spreading into the neighbors. The root grows to the size of an arm. But it doesn't have a trunk it's a group of gnarly twisted thick fat fingers that grow up in all directions then it shoots stems that go up to 6 to7 and 8 ft. I identified it as an elm tree because of the small leaves look just like the pictures I see online. So I assume it's a dwarf hybrid but there's no way a nursery would ever sell this ugly looking piece of junk. When I cut into it it's a thick sticky sap. I managed to kill them easily by cutting it low and drilling a few holes in the base and fill them with Roundup. Has anyone else ever heard of this or any other tree that looks like a elm leaf.

At 3:13 in the video looks more like a Silver maple ..flatter bark ..not as many encavement....

I love your videos so much. I found you through your video on my favorite tree, black spruce. Please come to Pennsylvania specifically the moshannon state forest!

Im so glad I stumbled on this video. Extremely helpful!!!!! Serviceberry is so beautiful in spring & fall, and delicious in the summer, but is a nightmare to learn the individual species, especially because they all hybridze so easily. You referenced using guidebooks to try differentiate the species, but I cant find any guides that do it any justice. Any recommendations?

Great video, I really enjoy the long videos. Looking forward to more about the red hickory, for me at least the hickory’s have always been confusing

many valuable trees

Beautiful video thank you. I would like to report that at 8:31 you spot a cryptozoological phenom.

Thank you!

Just fopund your channel and love it! Thanks. There is one tree here in VA that I always get confused by that looks like the Elm (in the wintertime) and that is the Boxelder.

Plenty of red spruce on Pack Monadnock as well!

Hickory and tulip popular in Tennessee have bird peck often

this mountain top is a continuation of the Great Canadian shield where only trees adapted to poor fast draining soils can grow in the cracks of this massive exposed bedrock shaped by the ice age

I'm a local I know where you're at LoL beautiful place!!

This the channel I didn’t know I needed lol. I was taking pictures of a tree I thought was a beech because it still retained a few of those yellowish leaves in the winter. After watching this video I went back and looked at the buds, they look nothing like the beech buds you showed here! I’m now thinking it was some kind of elm, I was reading that they can also retain some leaves over the winter as well.

I managed to get some seed and planting them in my yard in Louisiana. Hopefully they can handle this heat and humidity.

Can you grow a hemlock from their cone? I am looking to start some hemlocks and pant then along the back of my property

So what are the uses of the black locust and honey locust trees, if any? We have black locust trees here in northern California I believe.

I live in Dayton Ohio and I'm so surprised how often I see Hackberry tree's even in the city. I'm so excited because Hackberry makes amazing bonsai tree's! I'm Particularly interested in finding hornbeam tree's around are are area. If you have any leads I'm interested. I haven't seen but two growing naturally in the Dayton Ohio area both in Englewood dam Park.

Great vid

Good video

Hard to find videos about these trees, thanks alot 🙏

I'm really glad I found this video - thank you. It's the middle of winter here in Pennsylvania right now, and I've suddenly decided that I'm going to learn how to identify all the native evergreen trees. I found my eastern red cedars, and the maps say that common juniper is native around here, but I don't think I've ever seen it, and I had no idea how I would tell the difference between it and the red cedars. This helps a lot.

I've been telling this to everybody, but, there is a way to save individual chestnut trees so that they can survive long enough to flower and fruit, so that you can get nuts to plant and grow new trees. W. H. Weidlich described a method called 'mudpacking,' where they use soil compresses, a sort of bandage wrapped around the tree, to heal the places that are damaged by blight cankers. He observed that the roots beneath the soil stay alive, and he wondered if something in the soil was able to protect the tree against the blight. More research found that it was probably a type of trichoderma fungus that is commonly found in almost all soil. When the tree roots are exposed to the air, they are able to become blighted. He began wrapping these bandages filled with soil around the damaged areas, and in a few months, the areas would heal, and it would prevent the tree from dying. It would still be vulnerable to new areas becoming blighted, and it would require a lot of work to keep on adding new bandages where they were needed, but the method was effective. This is the name of the article: A Preliminary Report on a Method of Biological Control of the Chestnut Blight Not Involving the Use of a Hypovirulent Strain of Endothia parasitica - W. H. Weidlich, Department of Botany & Plant Pathology, Michigan State University, East Lansing, MI 48824

quit moving around point your finger when you are talking about a nut and hold it there while I take in the information

rewatching, another deep dive. Thanks again for the MOuntain Holly. Elementary school did field trip climb here from Connecticut. Unforgettable.
