We have a giant oak, several different kinds of Maple trees and tons of Walnut trees!! Also, we have planted a couple of Crabapple trees that are so beautiful in the Spring.
We have a willow tree in the back yard. We have a oak and a dogwood outside our master bedroom. On the side yard we have the Christmas tree we had in 1991 (it's huge now ), and a few other trees. I'm not sure what they are.
We used to have 3 apple trees and a persimmon tree, but the apples trees died and the power company cut the persimmon tree.
Sugar, Norway, and Silver Maples (all beautiful colors now), European Mountain Ash, one very large Blue Spruce, lots of evergreens, Yews and Arborvitae.
I am not very good with trees! Besides pine, maple, magnolia (in bloom), dogwood (in bloom), oak (with acorns) and weeping willow, I don't know the names of trees! Oh yeah, I know fruit trees, but they have to have the fruit on them for me to be able to know what kind of tree they are.
So ------------- all I know is that we have 2 pine (not sure what kind) and a bunch of others.
Oh, Dan Murphy, how I miss those colored leaves! We now have palm trees in our yard, since DH (whose from the Chicago area) wanted to move someplace warm. But I miss autumn leaves, pumpkins in piles, and picking my own apples.
In the front yard we now just have a large chestnut tree. It's messy in the fall but otherwise it is very pretty. We used to have a large maple in the front but we cut it down cause it was too close to the drive and we were getting a new driveway.
In the back, we only have 2 oak trees in the way back now. We used to have 2 peach trees, a plum tree and an apple tree. The fruit trees all weren't doing too good and it was quite a mess with the fruit on the ground....not to mention tons of bees!! I think those trees would have been about 40 years old by now too.
DH wants to plant some red maples and maybe some pine trees eventually.
Well, I don't have a yard, so no trees in the yard. However, we have these fabulous OLD oak trees that line are streets. This is a painting I did of my neighborhood last year, sorry for the poor quality. If you look closely you can see the trees I am talking about. I love this neighborhood mainly for the beautiful trees, something you don't see in the heart of the city often:
Fir, Pine, Alder... Lots of them. We also have a few Cherry and a few Laurel thrown into the mix. I LOVE MY FORREST!!! (we might move - I'm whining already)
so we have four wonderful delightful cherry trees....we ate our fill....then we just planted a pear tree.....we have not the bush variety but the tree variety of Lilacs.....but my daughters new home has 32 austrailian pines and one huge plum tree that was delicious....
I forgot to mention, our four pine trees in our yard. Also, we have a forest/thicket in the back 40 that we let go wild....there are many different trees in there!!
