Tree Identification of 2 trees-types of Willows?
Comments (3)I'm thinking that the first tree is some sort of Locust ("Twisty Baby" or something like that???). I've seen it being sold at Farmington Gardens. The second looks like the Golden Curls Willow. I have one in my yard....See MoreHanging papaya fruit tree identification help
Comments (10)Hello stanofh, Sorry for late reply...never got notice from email about follow up question. In past three years, coldest I can recall is maybe upper 30s/low 40s at nights during winter (but those are extreme cold spells that last for just few days...normally winter nights are upper 40's/low 50s). Strange thing is last year there was only one harvest of the hanging papayas in summer of around 12 fruits...it was surprise just to see fruit after nothing for 3 years. This year we were able to harvest around 20 fruits in spring and I thought that was it...butt now in fall there is another batch of 25+ fruits. Tree top is now probably reaching 12 foot tall, compared to last year when it was probably 7 or 8 foot tall. We don't use fertilizer or any plant food...the only difference in last year versus previous three years is actually less watering.

The most serious of folks and experts know the buds, too. Dax...See MoreTree Identification - small yellow fruits?
Comments (12)Happy to go with P.gracilor (Syn. Afrocarpus), and that interesting article explains how a relatively obscure African tree arrived in the USA. But I did note this line... "...it has recently been reclassified into the new genus Afrocarpus on the basis of its fruiting structure, with some botanists considering it a variety of Afrocarpus falcatus and others retaining its separate species designation."...See MoreLynn Dollar
