    Unusual Trees

    Outside of places like Japan, certainly. I don't think I've seen one any bigger around in Oregon. In Japan >>> https://www.nippon.com/en/views/b05310/venerable-blossoms-three-of-japan%E2%80%99s-most-revered-sakura.html There are apparently some ancient ones over there.

    Unusual Trees

    That tree girl emailed (and or called) a few years ago to inquire if she could see if I could give her a head start to reach some of the larger coast redwoods or new discoveries. She got "cold feet" aboutDecember, and also said she had arborist CEUs to catch up on. She was also worried about...

    There is a 4th burl in the distance almost as big as the other 3 burls. One of the largest is out of sight off to the right. Could only get so many in one photo.

    Unusual Trees

Years later, a snow load that may have bent the top the other way is 80 years melted into the past without a trace of evidence. The following is not highly unusual, but is unusual...

    Unusual Trees

    It's in Portland's old north / northweast neighborhood. If I recall ... somewhere near NE Ainsworth Street x NE 20th within a 15 block radius. When I stopped to look. I was guessing if this kind of tree ever had to be removed, it would be worth air-spading to cut roots and hoist as much as...

    Unusual Trees

    This is a maple street tree up in Portland. I think that's a burl base. I recall this being about 8 feet wide at ground level. Took this photo quite a few years ago, so I don't know if the tree is still alive. Probably is though.
