Aside from redwoods, what trees of America would you say are the most beautiful?

Question

It doesn't have to be one of Americas 680 native trees and can be a naturalized tree, or in other words an introduced tree that now grows on its own and thrives in the wild over here. Weeping Willows perhaps? Do you have a link with a picture of your tree selection?

Answer 1

I think the Flowering Dogwood(Cornus florida) is beautiful. Most of the dogwoods are very beautiful, but I find these to be especially showy. They can have pink or white flowers in the spring. They also have 4 seasons of interest, the beautiful flowers in the spring, a pretty fruit in the summer, awesome fall color, and interesting bark for the winter.

Answer 6

the problem would not sound like image voltaic capacity per se, yet really the position the neighbor chosen to positioned his panels. almost continuously, redwoods take in dissimilar room, so for his neighbor to have dissimilar timber might want to point a honest volume of land, and really they weren't ALL on the border of their resources. image voltaic panels are staggering resources of renewable capacity in case you could affor them, yet you want to take a lengthy-determination view contained in the planning of their installation and upkeep (hail, snow accumulation, etc). Me, i might want to've positioned them on my roof or the a thoughts north fringe of the resources to dodge the colour and go away the timber on my own.
