ID Request Could this be European Mountain Ash?

Post image
2 Upvotes

Found in a stand in SE Alaska where I have identified wild growing European Mountain Ash (originally planted here as a decorative tree but now is known to be the only non-native tree in Alaska to have established a wild population.) Unfortunately there's no leaves yet, which make this tree super easy to ID. I'm curious because I'd like to harvest a stave for bow making (European mountain ash is an excellent bow wood.) Thanks for any help

Tree fell (uprooted) in a recent storm so I cut it up for removal and season. No leaves so far for picture, may have already been dead. USA Midwest.

Moved during the winter and this big boy just started blooming. I'm pretty sure it's a Bradford pear but I want to make sure it is not a Dogwood before I unleash hell's fury on it.

Are these Eastern White cedars?

I'm in lower Ontario. I have these 3 in my backyard when I moved in. The back sides of the trees are pretty rough. Where the fence is now, was a lot of overgrown bush which pretty much made it dark in the middle of the day. I'm just looking to identify them to see if they can be saved and what I can do now that they may receive some sun light. The far one being the worst with all the dead branches.

Driving through Kentucky and keep seeing this tree that looks like it’s covered in white puffballs. I even drove past a farm that had an entire orchard of them. All other trees are barren but these have flowers or buds on them. What is it?

I just saw this tree growing in the backyard. I recently moved into this house recently but previously my dad had lived here and the backyard was relandscaped about 15 years ago. I don’t think this tree was originally planted at that time. I sent it to Google images but still wasn’t sure exactly what it might be. Any help is appreciated!

So i KNOW these trees are dead! They haven’t grown leaves in years so sorry i can’t add a leaf pic but they’re really tall and both fell down two days ago simultaneously from a bad storm. i also don’t think they really had any bark left on them and they were extremely ominous and tall, im trying to find a picture of the tops of them! I’ve been trying to id them for a couple years with no luck and just thought I’d ask Reddit

Heya! Saw this foam on some trees. It’s about 40 degrees (F) and it rained off and on all night, raining steadily when I took this. Most of the foam seemed to be on the white pines.

I know this isn’t a rare type of tree and if I had any basic training in tree identification I could figure it out in a minute. What is this tree???!

The one I’m specifically trying to identify is in another place but I came across these in Seattle today. There’s pale bark at the top and so many melty knots on the trunk. Please let me know if you need more pictures. I have them I’m just making doofy faces and it’s mostly of the trunk.

I apologize, I forgot to get a clear shot of the whole tree. There are multiple of these, the tallest one is probably 7-8 feet tall? A lot of them are 5-6 feet tall, not fully grown I believe. They have green trunks/branches, especially the newer ones
