Tree ID

Was at our new property today and found this tree. Its in an area with lots of dead Ash (EAB) but bigger than any of them. I also found some compound leaves in the area didnt see any nuts when I kicked up the snow. Im thinking either Pignut or an Ash that survived the EAB thoughts?

 

it’s a Hickory, one side looks like shagbark and the other looks like a pignut

 

Agree-Hickory

 

Yes, hickory. Not sure which one. Don't think shagbark.

 

Don't know on the is but nice looking property, how many acres you have there?

 

Doesn't look like any shagbark I have seen.

 

I have a few shagbarks on the property I know its not one of those.

 

10 acres.

 

Without looking at the other replies, i say pignut hickory, maybe mockernut which is not common in my area.

 

I’ve never seen hickory. So I can’t say on that. But we have lots of Ash here. It’s not ash.

 

Bitternut Hickory. 12 species of hickory native to North America. Here is a link that has good Hickory info for all you wood nuts.

X2, not shagbark. And definetly not Bitternut , cause I got a bunch of them.

 

who you callin' a wood nut?

 

Puts me in mind of blue ash. But I don't think blue ash grows in your area. It's the one ash the EAB won't attack unless there is no other ash available. Look close at the branching and leaves. If they're opposite it's blue ash.

Not sure here but I think it may be white oak? Maybe those leaves are from a different teee.

 

We don't have hickory so around here that bark resembles a cottonwood. They grow bigger and taller than most. This is the biggest around me.

 

Like others have said, the tree in question is a hickory. And all ash has opposite branching.
