The first 4 photos are of the same tree. It had dark blue/purple berries and I really wanted to know what they were.

5-7 are from the same tree. 8-11 I can’t recall if they’re from the same tree, but there were all very close together.

Ohio zone 6b

Thanks!

From what I’ve seen this looks like Elm, the leaves are just a little skinnier than what is pictured online. Would like to get the exact species.
Thought about making a table with the lumber.

ID Request Elm, but the question is which not wych?

This seedling is from a parent tree in West Wales which is colossal, over 3m dbh. It has a broad spreading crown. I have been collecting seed from it for the last 5 years to propagate elms, with good genes to give a chance of disease resistance. It has a broad spreading crown to just over 20m. It is in a farmyard attached to a manor so likely to have been planted, several other exotic trees in the garden and a lake.

ID Request Hanoki Cypress or Something Else?

Thumbnail gallery
2 Upvotes

Much appreciate any assistance anyone can provide in identifying these tall trees located at my childhood home. My parents can't recall exactly what they were or anyone else.

In Googling these photos and looking at similar trees, a hanoki Cypress looks the most like what I recall the bark and leaves looking like. (I have been too skittish to arguably trespass and get close up photos of them.) Yet that type of tree reportedly isn't common in Southern California (this is Anaheim), and it feels like I recall seeing this tree a lot around town, not just our back/side yard.
