    Bucked quite a bit of this at my cut today. The guy I was working for thought cherry, but I said willow and after cutting all of it I'm thinking weeping cherry? Your thoughts FHC. IMG_6876.JPG IMG_6877.JPG IMG_6878.JPG IMG_6879.JPG IMG_6880.JPG IMG_6881.JPG

    I’m positive it’s cherry of some sort. Not weeping cherry, I’ve gotten that before and the bark/wood color is different.

    I sniffed a couple and it had a very faint cherry smell. My mother had planted a pink weeping cherry in her yard and IIRC the bark looked similar. There was a lot of it to cut. It was a big tree.

    Bark looks very cherry, do you have any pics of a split?
