Great information-this was very helpful as I begin learning about Washington State plants and trees.

maple: five lobed leaves, deciduous, big crown alder: deciduous, ovular serrated eaves Hemlock: flat short pine like needles douglas fir: deeply grooved thick bark, needle like leaves that go all the way around Cedar: reddish bark, coniferous, flattened leves but not quite as needly, more like a miniature fern

[@nathana.m.1622]

Hemlocks are also coniferous… & you’ve got no Cedars (Cedrus spp.) in America

[@waynesigmon5628]

Yeah here in North Carolina we got the Eastern hemlock Western North Carolina

I thought my internet had a problem for a sec. I really wish the editing had been focused on piecing the video together correctly!!!! wish there were more videos like this

[@johnstilley5063]

I'm new to the Pacific Northwest and Washington. Are there classes I could take or walks through the first with a ranger to learn more about the trees in the area? Or... what are some good books? Love the video!

Just head out by yourself - I think it’s more fun that way. I’m In Massachusetts but I’m just getting interested myself. Just Google “Washington state tree identification” and have a couple of websites open and ready on your phone. The sites are great - all you have to do is get a good look at one leaf and the bark, then fill in the clues. It’s a really awesome feeling when you figure one out!

Sounds like you would enjoy "Tree School".

Thanks, just moved to Oregon and am seeing giants.

[@macnsteezefb]

Just think about what they used to look like, puny in comparison now

please do everyone a favor and lose the music next time. Give her some more time to explain aswell, these feel like commercials lol

[@samisampleasmr4931]

I don’t agree. I think they did a great job.

[@Gravy_Master]

I think you’re the only one here asking for that favor, bubba.
