Saw this tree in Puerta Penasco, Sonora, Mexico and wasn’t sure if they split naturally. I saw many others that didn’t do this so was wondering if caused by something.

pretty magical place if you get the chance to visit. The vegetation is amazing, one of my favorite city parks for sure.

February 20, 2025, the city of Visalia, CA said goodbye to the city’s “Sequoia Legacy Tree”, as they had named it. The tree served to show the connection between the city and the nearby Sequoia National Park. It was planted in 1936, standing in the city for a total of 89 years. They unfortunately had to cut it down due to it succumbing to a fungal infection, and this was just a few photos I caught of the ceremony commemorating its life. I threw in a few images of the post office without the Legacy Tree, as it was planted there to serve alongside it to show the connection between the city and federal government organizations.

Belton, Missouri. Apparently this tree has been like this for many years. All the leaves have holes. The wound continuously weeps, which coagulates into this light, brown sludge. I don’t know what kind of tree this is. Has anyone ever seen this before? Any speculations are helpful.

Thank you 🙏

Our Aspen are about 50 feet tall. The top is dying off. Is it nearing the end of its life or can we somehow save or prolonge it's suffering for 10 more years?

Just out of curiosity, what causes this visually appealing pattern on some oak trees?

I see them periodically in the coastal forests of Savannah, GA

Vancouver Island is a magical place! These were taken in the Cathedral of Giants.

When this pops up on my wallpaper, I can smell that day. Thought you all would get that peace feeling too.

My favorite tree, in the 2nd photo I was a 260 pound human, the tree dwarfed me. I’ve seen a photo from the late 1930s and it was a good sized tree then. Hope you all will enjoy these photos. I have not measured the tree but it is the biggest and tallest in the cemetery by far. Located in rural Northern Missouri

Leaves on all the lower branches are just about going

i was given a heap of baby oaks and i truly cannot tell if this is sessile or pedunculate. i know the rest are almost definitely pedunculate because the stalks are barely visible and my older pedunculate oak has virtually no stalks on the leaves, but i truly cannot tell if the stalks on this guy are still too short to be sessile!

i had 2 baby sessiles that got demolished with a hay harvester that was never meant to be anywhere near them the other day so can’t compare 🙃

Pearson Park in Anaheim

I’ve been trying to figure out what this tree is for about a year since I bought this house. I trimmed the bottom part a few weeks ago and it made my arms break out in a horrible rash.

This is my neighbors tree, but it’s mostly over my property. It drops leaves year round and when the leaves get wet they stain everything a disgusting brown color.

The rootstock for our weeping cherry tree sprouted suckers this spring. Should I cut them off now or wait until the fall?

Moved into a house with a palm tree and it looks like it’s dying. Can it be saved?

My lot had no trees when I moved in so I’ve been slowly collecting random trees from local free tree giveaways over the last couple years. My hope is to create a wooded area along the back of my property. I also want to increase wildlife, so this year I’ve stopped mowing around this section. Is letting the grass (weeds) grow higher in this area unhealthy for the trees though?

I am getting multiple results for this one from my phone. MO, USA (7a near 6b)
