Hi, I have been searching tree websites in vain, trying to find the name
of a tree in my neighbourhood that intrigues me.
It keeps all its leave all winter, but appears to be a deciduous rather
than an evergreen tree!
Here's what I can see:
Height -- extremely tall, tallest above other nearby trees
Shape: creates a large, wide shape (not spindly but spread out wide and
tall)
Bark: Can only see from a distance but looks smooth, pale tan-brown
(camel coloured)
Leaves: smooth oval shaped "leaflets" I think they would be called.
Never drops its leaves in Autumn! Stays looking like a summer tree all
winter. All leaves are green, never turn brown.
Eliminated: I know it's not oak, willow, silver birch or an
evergreen/conifer.
Many thanks to anyone who can help.
Photo please.
Sounds a bit like a eucalyptus of some sort.
