View Full Version : Flowering Tree Paphraguy May 16th, 2009, 04:14 PM Can anyone ID this flowering tree? It blooms every spring and gets very messy with the dropped flowers and cherry like fruits all over the place. Thanks! http://img391.imageshack.us/img391/7566/tree0.jpg http://img391.imageshack.us/img391/2425/tree008.jpg Paul B May 16th, 2009, 04:23 PM no idea what it is but nice blooms! Paphi May 16th, 2009, 05:58 PM very very pretty:heart::heart::heart: skipper May 16th, 2009, 07:07 PM Could it be a flowering cherry tree? Paphy57 May 16th, 2009, 08:58 PM Could it be a flowering cherry tree? That was what I was thinking, but all the cherry trees I have seen do not just have one set of petals like that. The cherry tree at my house is very messy though, so there is one similarity! LOL Slipperguy May 17th, 2009, 01:23 AM Lovely tree...nice color blooms! orchidlover May 17th, 2009, 11:48 AM I'm also thinking it's a cherry tree but the flowers look a little different. Those trees are beautiful when they bloom but very messy when they are done flowering. Tom S May 17th, 2009, 07:24 PM Beautiful tree and it looks almost like a hydrangea tree. Paphy57 May 17th, 2009, 09:10 PM It would help if you could also post a pic when it leafs out. I am interested to see what it will be! snow May 18th, 2009, 11:31 PM could be a flowering crab. orchidlover May 19th, 2009, 10:13 AM could be a flowering crab. :iagree: it does look more like a flowering crabtree than a flowering cherry tree. Paphraguy May 19th, 2009, 01:59 PM could be a flowering crab. You're probably right! The fruits are not as large as crabapples though, more like very large cherries. Paphy57 May 19th, 2009, 07:44 PM You're probably right! The fruits are not as large as crabapples though, more like very large cherries. It could just be variation within the species. I also think it looks like a crabapple. skipper May 19th, 2009, 09:27 PM I also think it is a crabapple tree. |
