Title: Re: What type of tree is this? Post by: Reuben on March 31, 2012, 01:08:33 pm I haven't seen a china berry tree in a long time but that does not look like one right there...
Title: Re: What type of tree is this? Post by: Boarhog13 on March 31, 2012, 01:27:09 pm Reuben u may be right but when I google "chinaberry tree" and go to images this is what I found.

Title: Re: What type of tree is this? Post by: Reuben on March 31, 2012, 01:35:03 pm it could be a china berry tree by comparing the two...I thought I saw some big pods at first that is why I did't think it was a chinaberry tree.

Title: Re: What type of tree is this? Post by: Cutter Bay Kennels on March 31, 2012, 04:11:43 pm The leaves look different. ???
Any other suggestions? :-\ Title: Re: What type of tree is this? Post by: arh030 on March 31, 2012, 05:22:38 pm Looks like a chinaberry to me, a good test is chinaberry's have brittle branches and tend to break instead of bend.

I am pretty sure China berry. Check out the leaves on the UF link. Title: Re: What type of tree is this? Post by: Reuben on March 31, 2012, 07:07:51 pm I was around china berry trees quite a bit as a kid...I remember them more like an umbrella type tree but I believe that the neighbor down the road had one that looked similar to that one...I didn't pay much attention to it but if it was a china berry tree it was an old one...

Title: Re: What type of tree is this? Post by: matt_aggie04 on March 31, 2012, 09:27:33 pm Chinaberry, I have one just like it in my yard.
Title: Re: What type of tree is this? Post by: Cutter Bay Kennels on April 01, 2012, 06:52:51 am Thanks everyone.
Some food friends of mine have it on their farm. They are in their sixties. She was raised on the property. She said this was the first year she ever noticed it flowering. After seeing its beauty, she wanted to plant more around the farm. However, she did not know if it was grafted or just grew from seeds. She figured with the correct name, she could research it to find out. Thank you again. Title: Re: What type of tree is this? Post by: Wmwendler on April 01, 2012, 08:04:04 am definately a china berry........fast growing, short lived, brittle trees.
Waylon Title: Re: What type of tree is this? Post by: Cutter Bay Kennels on April 01, 2012, 09:34:03 am She told me she knows it has been there for at least 30 years.
Also, it should have read "fond friends" in my post above, not "food friends". Lol Title: Re: Re: What type of tree is this? Post by: muleman on April 01, 2012, 09:36:02 am We had a coondog that chewed on a China berry tree and it made her have seizures. Had no idea what was wrong with her a vet finally figured it out.
Title: Re: What type of tree is this? Post by: Reuben on April 01, 2012, 01:11:44 pm those berries make good ammo for a slingshot...and made many an arrow with the soft green limbs...just scraped the bark off and make a point on one end and notch the other...about the only kind of toys I had growing up.;D :)

Title: Re: What type of tree is this? Post by: Hog Dog Mike on April 02, 2012, 02:39:35 pm Call the National Forest Service in Lufkin, Tx. and ask for Joe. What he don't know about trees is not worth knowing.
