[IBC] What kind of tree is this
Oh, thank you Jim,
for you help and understanding here. I Have read the responces but am no wiser.. I have no idea what the names they gave mean. I did check out some tree and shrub books yesterday at the libiary so will see if I can find these "names" in any of them. I did gather some of the seeds and planted them, just to see if theymight grow as the parent tree is much too large to dig up.. I can't dig yet anyway, but am hopeful the surgon will tell me I can do at least some light digging when I see him again next week. thanks to all who responded or might respond... Barb zone 9 north of Houston I posted the pics on the gallery. Here are the responses todate: Maybe a prunus spinosa i would have thought blackthorn or sloe Rather difficult to tell from the photos, Jim... have her look at Chionanthus perhaps.. I've seen a lot of leaf shape variability within both retusas and virginicus. Anyway, the general feel is one that's close to Chionanthus... If I get others I'll pass them on. jim ************************************************** ****************************** ++++Sponsored, in part, by Lisa Kanis++++ ************************************************** ****************************** -- The IBC HOME PAGE & FAQ: http://www.internetbonsaiclub.org/ -- +++++ Questions?

[IBC] What kind of tree is this
If it is too large to dig up you could try an air-layer! It's easy and
efficient I'm trying to develop some new plants by seed, just for fun, but I recommend to propagate by cuttings or air-layers, because it will save so much time... and we're talking about years... With cuttings or air-layers you can choose the shape you want from the parent tree, and the work is almost half-done by mother Nature!
