Ann Posted April 16, 2008 Posted April 16, 2008 How many trees do you have in your yard? What kinds??? Quote
Janet B Posted April 16, 2008 Posted April 16, 2008 ha ha! - you just got me up off my bum and into the fresh air to count! Thank you! After this reply I think I will go outside for the rest of the afternoon! Anyway -I have 8 trees. 1 cedar, 1 peach, 1 pink dogwood, 1 "kitty" willow (real name got blocked!), 1 cherry, and 3 maple. The cherry, peach and dogwood will all be blooming soon - they are so beautiful! Happy spring! Janet Quote
Ry Posted April 16, 2008 Posted April 16, 2008 2 maple, 1 crooked willow, 1 crab apple, 1 barlett pear, 1 pine, 2 elm-- 8! Quote
Patti B Posted April 16, 2008 Posted April 16, 2008 We have 1 ash tree, 1 maple tree, and 1 forsythia (oh, no thats a bush) on our close property. We have a small woods behind our house that goes to our huge creek. All kinds of tress there including tons of those dreaded cottonwood trees!!! Once they start shedding, my lawn will look like there has been a snowstorm. Upset my sons allergies terribly. We can't open our pool until its done because the cottowood crap plugs up the pool pump!! Hugs - Patti B Quote
Ann Posted April 16, 2008 Author Posted April 16, 2008 Wow...never realized I had 10 trees until I asked this question. I thought of the question yesterday, while pulling weeds outside. I have 7 palms, 2 oak trees and 1 orange tree. Quote
Geri Posted April 17, 2008 Posted April 17, 2008 Where to start counting.........1/3 of our side yard (we have 11/2 acres) is wet lands so the conservation people almost count the leaves as they fall in the autumn Wouldn't want us to desicrate this particular bog! The back and part of the other side of the lot also are treed. We have a circular drive out front which has a bunch of trees in the middle also. I have no idea what most of these trees are, there were a lot of very spectacular red maples last fall and some are pines and cedar..............now I'm stumped. Thank goodness Richard has a shredder for branches and leaves........we don't have to buy any mulch this year! Quote
P.S. I Love You Posted April 17, 2008 Posted April 17, 2008 A stand of cedars A row of white pine 6 maples, one huge one about 80 years old 3 spruce 3 Chinese dogwood An old peach An old pear Kwanzan cherry Star magnolia I love the trees, but every fall I hate those maples! Quote
dchurchi Posted April 17, 2008 Posted April 17, 2008 Well it's not really my "yard" but in front of our condo are 5 very tall and majestic looking pine trees We currenty have hawks nesting at the top (proof in the form of the "bunny fur" left behind at the base of the trees). My back yard is asphalt, so no trees there. Quote
Bruce u Posted April 17, 2008 Posted April 17, 2008 I have 80 acres of Poplar and Spruce. Sorry but I'm not counting them. LOL Quote
JB Posted April 18, 2008 Posted April 18, 2008 I have three trees technically "in my yard" but a bunch around them...They are all the same trees...One's that have leaves in the summer that come off in the fall. Sorry, but I'm not an arborist, or a horticulturalist, or anyone who knows anything about trees. Quote
