  • Retired Ecology and Biology teacher Robert Knudson teaches us to identify the common deciduous trees of Northern Minnesota by their leaves.
    Biology & Ecology teacher Rob Knudson comes out of retirement to take us for a walk in the woods, showing us how to identify the common deciduous trees of Northern Minnesota by their leaves. He demonstrates side-by-side comparisons of the different species’ traits and he talks of the importance of understanding one’s environment when one is enjoying our beautiful Minnesota outdoors.

    Are all those trees with lime green leaves emerging early spring, on super thin (usually) trunks of white, among the balsam firs, white and black spruces, and white and red pines that I see along 61 on lake superior...trembling aspens?
    i always thought they were thin birches.
    they have such a glowing soft lime green color.
    thanks for the video.

    Hi Bob, What I want to know (I may have missed hearing it on here) is about acorns on oaks. Does the Burr oak and White oak produce acorns annually and does the Red oak produce acorns every 2 years ? That is what I want to learn. Thank you Sir. I am from Minnetonka (trivial !)

    I agree with most varieties only disagree with Eastern American cottonwood which is very similar to Lombardy poplar leaves and the cottonwood leave you are describing is more ressemblance to balsam poplar.

  • @worganyos
    @worganyos 4 ปีที่แล้ว

    The hornbeam (ironwood) that he showed is actually hop hornbeam. The American hornbeam (musclewood) has smooth bark that looks muscular. The leaves are also slightly different.

      Yes, and the Mountain-ash is not a true ash. Also, the Cottonwood is not a type of Aspen, but a Poplar.

      Hi. Great video. Thank you and God bless, Mr Knudson!
      Bryan, I'm an amateur dendrologist (and drummer, hahaha) who grew up in Chicago, along the Little Calumet River. In our sizeable yard was a stately Eastern Cottonwood, a Honeylocust, a Silver Maple and others. Across the river I could see Bur Oak, Black Willow, Cottonwood, Ash (spp.) and other trees. The Boxelder in our yard had typical compound leaves with three leaflets, five and rarely seven. (All on one tree.)
