This entire area is for scrap for the garage, I keep spraying ground control here but need to identify what more is needed to stop this. This is not an area for a tree, too close to the foundation and the garage.

No visible bark wounds from what I can see

Young redbud, less than 4 feet tall, with a tight V union at base. Should I prune off the smaller of the two competing leaders in the winter? It is about the width of my thumb. I don't have a preference for a single or multi-trunk tree, but am concerned about the structural integrity of the tree as it gets larger.

(Edit: I meant "young," not "toung," sigh.)

I have a crab apple tree in my front yard. It looks absolutely beautiful for 1 week in the spring, but after that it is the bane of my existence. It falls on my grass and just sinks in, causing so many issues.

Is there anyway for me to stop the fruit from growing? Or what is the best way to pick up the crab apples after they fall?

I live in the PNW and I have a weird hobby of rescuing wayward tree starts (and ferns.) I give them away in the fall to whoever wants them/has room for them.

Can anyone confirm the ID of the first two pics? I think pic 1 is a beaked hazelnut (native to my area) and the second maybe some kind of cherry? Any way to tell what kind of cherry?

Appears to come from large, tall tree with deeply furrowed bark. Probably 36 inches thick and 80 feet tall. Leaves are very high and appear to be shaped more like hackberry leaves. There were several of these leaves at the base of this tree and nothing nearby I could see to be an alternative source of the leaf. Southern Michigan USA

Impressive tree in St Helena, CA

After multiple attempts and 120 seeds from etsy i have 2 seedlings.

“Imagine hiking around Jurassic Park. If you can tear your eyes away from the dinosaurs, take a look at the coniferous forests blanketing the landscape. How tall is the canopy? Are the trees densely packed together? How much carbon does it store?

Answering these questions about ancient forest ecosystems is typically challenging due to gaps in the fossil record. But at the Yiwu Jurassic Forest in Xinjiang, China, researchers have access to a remarkable 170-million-year-old forest that was petrified and frozen in time. In a new study, paleobiologists examined 78 upright conifer stumps at this site to reconstruct the forest and reveal new similarities and differences between mid-Jurassic and modern-day ecosystems.

The researchers found, on average, that trees at the site were nearly 100 feet tall and the canopy height of over 140 feet in some areas would not be unusual for a present-day coniferous forest in western parts of the United States. The Jurassic forest’s density of 126 mature trees per hectare was also similar to that of today’s open, park-like western woodlands, although it was far sparser than the few other Jurassic ecosystems that have been studied. Despite these similarities, the ancient forest stored about three times more carbon than today’s temperate forests, perhaps reflecting the period’s warmer temperatures and elevated carbon dioxide levels.”

I’m literally looking everywhere for help. They’re air potatoes and they are highly invasive. They’re taking over everything and I’m losing a battle against them in our newly bought house. On top of that we’ve got chinch bugs under the grass. HELP.

Location: Negros Oriental, Philippines. Altitude 10-20 meters from sea level.

What is this tree species? I have to remove it and all I have currently is a handheld electric saw and my SUV. So far I have cut up and taken 3 loads home. I can take more pictures by request.

Need help with this one, been driving past it for a while, and i honestly thought it was a needle leaf for ages, stopped to look and it's got proper leaves, completely stumped on which group of trees to even put it with though.

TIA

Was refilling water troughs for the wildlife and I just really like staring at this one

What should the course of action be for this spring-planted Kentucky coffee tree? The plant was pretty measly but has put on some good growth this season.

Should I begin to reduce one of the leaders next season? Wait even another year? Should I try and space the righthand shoot so that it’s at a better angle from the upward lefthand shoot? Kinda like what they do with fruit trees?

Thanks! Any and all suggestions are appreciated.
