My chestnut trees
 
Other tree is behind big tree.

After planting the other tree I discovered it was maybe a foot or so in
neighbors yard which is completely overgrown.

This picture is other end of yard where trees fell in 2015 between
neighbor and my yards and we had to have removed:

Don't know if I mentioned it in this group but that neighbor had a tree
fall on his house and wife in their yard this January. House needed new
roof and wife has metal rods in both legs that were badly broken. She
still walks with a limp but is expected to fully recover.

I saw that on the second picture. Didn't realize Chinese chestnuts were
such small trees. I was thinking huge trees like hickory, etc.

I don't consider it small. Not sure how big it is. Wiki says they grow
to 20 m. Offhand, I'd guess that is about the height of mine. Wiki
says the American chestnut grows to 30 m.
