Help with Id
« on: April 28, 2016, 07:22:31 am »
Hello guys, I recently found some pipe strait saplings that look very much like ash. It has opposite branching, 7 leaflets, and the leaves look a lot like ash but there is one thing that is odd: Even mature trees with a diameter of 6 inches or more has a smooth bark. Is this normal or is this another species?

Post a few pix. of said tree.
Whole tree, bark, 3 to 4 foot section of outer limb, top and bottom of a good leaf.

To ID a tree with out seeing any of it is hard to do.

You are right.  Those do look like Ash Trees.
Are you in the Country of Turkey???

If so, Your tree could be something that we Americans dont have.

Yes I am in turkey. We have many ash trees that i'm sure is ash but this one has more broad leaves instead of the thin leaves I know. Also mature trunks of this has smooth bark

The picture looking up into canopy sure looks like ash. the bark sure doesn't. the leaf looks close but almost too round. Sure seems like it could be related but my knowledge of trees is limited to my local. I'll be watching to see if someone knows.
