Hi,
Does anyone out there know where I can find a good photo of a jujube tree?
I have done several searches and haven't found a good picture yet. Also, if
someone has one of these trees, can I ask questions about it?

Are you referring to Zizyphus jujuba?

There are several pictures he

As I recall, the Z. jujube tree isn't unusually pretty or ugly - kind of
like an apple tree in overall impression, but a less-green green.

The website for the California Rare Fruit Growers has a text description
of the tree:
http://www.crfg.org/fg/xref/xref-z.html#zizyphus_jujuba

The plant database at the Jerusalem Botanic Garden has whole-tree
pictures of some other species of Zizyphus:

Hope that helps!

I have one in my yard in Baton Rouge. It's young, maybe 4 or 5 years old.
I'll get a picture of it tomorrow if you like. What questions do you have?

This is a cool tree, in my opinion. There are two flanking the entrance to
the National Herb & Knot Garden at the US National Arboretum. I believe it
is commonly referred to as the Chinese Date Tree?

They do incredibly well in the SW desert! There are a rather large
number of cultivars. I'm searching for my books covering the spp. and
will respond with more info as soon as I find them.

I posted a few pics of my jujube below. Look in My Favorite trees. The
jujube is second from the left. It is slower growing than the other trees
which were planted within a year or so of the jujube. I like the shape, leaf
texture and bark of the tree.

That reminds me, I have some digital photos of the Zizyphus jujuba I took at
the Arboretum this morning. I'll post them to a.b.p.g. under subject:
Zizyphus jujuba.
