Yeah, that's what's making a couple people say it's creepy. Miserable people always try to dull the shine of naturally Happy people by calling them creepy or something wrong with them. I swear.
“...a White pine. White, w-i-t-e, five letters, five sprigs...” (4:29) Sorry, I’m a tech writer and these things pop out at me. I just had to smile. Great video, James!
just don't get confused with pitch pine, red pine, yellow pine, virginia pine, ponderosa pine which all have 2, 3, 4 or 5 needles despite the number of letters in the name.
I had 4 kids very close together , I drove a truck their first years on the planet , and I was only home 3 or 4 days a month, and would get their names wrong sometimes, it would make my wife crazy mad 😡
As a KY mountains grandkid. My great grandma at 90 plus years could ID almost every plant on her home place also telling the uses of them as medical use or building use A forgotten art.,Same to say.
True that. They should also replace history with current events related to law and government. History's basically just about war and slavery, which are just confusing concepts for young, innocent children to grasp. It's even hard for some adults to grasp the concept of, because we're taught about it so dryly, and at ages where we have no life experience to make it even seem real. Some things should be learned out of curiosity, and with sensitivity, not just for a grade.
@@maybewise We'll have to agree to disagree, I'm a history buff, I love history. The only problem is, school teaches you what they want to teach, From my own personal research on different times in history, I can say the school leaves out important parts of history, or they won't teach the whole story.
@@cookingradar5974 So you explored it out of curiosity, and not just for a grade? XD... That's my point. That's how it should be. Maybe I just had bad history teachers, but we weren't granted the chance to be curious, and explore interesting subjects on a deeper level. Especially not in grade school. It was just like "Memorize these names and dates of wars, and get out.". And I'm bad at memorizing things I don't feel connected to. So I was never good at history. But now, I read about history in my free time, because it's actually interesting, just severely flawed in the way it's taught to kids, in my opinion.
This is awesome. I am a newb who recently purchased The Secret Life Of Trees. Now I'm hooked, trying to get as much info and knowledge as I can. I appreciate your video.
Love the beginning of this video ad slit your bring your kid into the woods showing him the different types of trees getting him involved excellent job dude great parenting
I love trees and I just started learning all their characteristics. My goal for 2020 is to be able to make a video like this in dutch. Thanks for the inspiration!
James, thank you! I love hiking and I love woodworking but don’t get ID tips like this day to day. BTW, whatever your Steadicam is, you made a killer investment. This video is absurdly stable.
I was looking for a guide to common trees, you gave it and you made it fun. I recognized a few, from the park across the street. Others were new, and others (like oak) were widely known. You made it informative enough that I feel confident the next time I'm out and looking for what kind of trees are around me. Thanks.
Great video friend. This helped a lot. I owned a landscaping business that sables in tree work and this is perfect. You moved at a comfy steady pace and added no fluff
(9:31) “…so when you’re running in the woods, you’re going to come across these nuts….”, very subtle James, nice. Sorry, I have a younger brother and these things pop out at me.
Dear wood by wright - I got your reply via phone app . I realize the Dirr's manual is not for the average person with out some plant biology and or forestry background . Yes the cost varies either hard back edition and the paperback is not to out of range for the backyard or weekend gardener. We in St. Louis area can enjoy Missouri Botanical Gardens " Plant Finder ", web site featuring 51,000 plants In common term and scientific genus . So keep up your good work in what your are doing and the one thing that stood out on your video was you taking your son out . Please keep the encouragement up with your son , and maybe someday we can have another person passionate of our natural resources just like you and I .
Very informative video. More identification books I've seen use perfect examples and are really difficult to match. Your video is much clearer. Bookmarked the arbor site as well, never knew about that one.
Now that's a bad ash video! I try to do the same thing with my kids when we are in the woods. My dad and his uncles did that with me! Very cool. Keep it up!
Love this video. I want to plant some trees, just a few and watch them grow. I planted too many in my yard so I have to find somewhere to. Put them. Also, I've been thinking of planting an American chestnut tree. They have crossed them with Chinese chestnut which have a natural immunity to the blight that wiped them out over the past century or so. A great tree and great wood.
Wood By Wright you just showed us a great way to identify trees in the fall, is there an easy way to identify wood after it’s been milled? Ps, parks like yours are a great class room 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻
Thank you so much! The app advice was invaluable, it's helped me greatly. Come to find out I have one wild cherry tree in my woods which is very exciting!
Love this, do some more! I recognized those poplar leaves and twigs but then you called them cottonwood. Looked it up, cottonwood and aspen are types of poplar. Learning begets learning.
LOL yup. got a lot of all three of those around here. there is a lot of cross-breeding. you should see swamp oak and bur oak. both can inter bread and you can have a tree that is 50% of each. and all of them are white oak. but there is a white oak that is also a classified as white oak. those get really confusing!
Thanks so much for the video. While I think your video was very well done and informative I have to comment on your walking partner. He was very patient and well mannered. Dad is doing a good job.
Wish my school taught plant identification. Because you know, that actually prepares you for "the real world" Food and medicine are nessecary. im sure mcdonalds and big pharma have agendas for NOT letting us know what we have all around us ;)
Im a cabinet maker and farm boy from East Texas, i missed only one of your trees, thanks for the info, ive never even heard of box elder, but will be on the look out for it
Not sure but there's probably a lot less box elders in East Texas for you to see. I got one about 6 months ago, only the stump and a few logs, and it's got the prettiest red heartwood ever, love those.
Loved the video, and found it to be extremely helpful. I am going "gung ho" with starting a wood working business ( Facebook page and TH-cam channel shortly). The channel is going to focus on how to start out with wood working, doing simple projects, with hand tools, and then slowly building and getting everything for a larger wood shop. I am super excited about it, being very positive and understand it's an ambitious endeavor.
I am very familiar with shrubs and perennials but need to work on identifying trees. You gave me some really useful info and the links will help me even more. Thanks!!
Many years ago I lived on the extreme north side of Memphis, Tn. Walking in the woods one day I came upon the weirdest looking nut I had ever seen. Kind of like a black walnut except elongated a lot and a much lighter color. Kind of sticky also. Turned out to be a butternut. The nuts are very mild and WAY more work than they are worth. I do love trees though. Butternut lumber, also known as white walnut, is quite pretty.
When I saw the larger hickory, I thought maybe you had Shellbark as well as shagbark out there. We have native shagbark and I have 4 Shellbark from seed growing and now fruiting, after some 20 years. The seed parents were cut down by the University that late fall for a parking lot, so I didn't get any grafting wood that winter, just seeds and only because I grabbed them the day I noticed they were there. Our native elms are dying off slowly here, but make for good woodpecker nests and morel mushroom sites later on. Learned a few things here friend, so thanks.
Thanks James I loved this video and I wasn't expecting one so soon after you suggested it. These species aren't in Scotland although family members are. It was good seeing something different. The apps were good and I'll get it and use it.
Hope Arthur is doing well in school whether you are home schooling or he is dealing with the scamdemic issues in his school. Great video. I have shared a lot of your knowledge with my grandchildren.
Box Elder is called Manitoba Maple around here. That is the biggest Black Walnut I have ever seen, they are usually slightly smaller than a tennis ball up here. Elms are finally starting to make a comeback. They were about wiped out by Dutch Elm Disease years ago. Great video James.
the Elm have been making a good come back here though we do still have some Dutch Elm disease that pops up from time to time. there are a ton of names for box elder. ash-leaved maple, maple ash, lose maple, and I have heard a few others.
Very well explained I live in Australia and I'm building an ornamental garden with deciduous trees And so I had heard of a lot of these but didn't know what they look like. Ive plane did some trees called pin Oak-trees I think there in the red oak family
It burns good and grows big but it’s no good for cooking with the wood has a stench to it, as far as fruit I’m not sure any is edible. Good heating wood though.
Just moved to TN a few months ago nad trying to ID some of the trees on my property. From memory (its night here) I believe 2 types of trees that look familiar by leaves and bark are a maple and I believe ash. I will use this tomorrow and take some pictures and revisit this video to see if i can further ID and confirm my types. There are at least 3 different types in the woods behind my house. I do have nuts that drop that look like black walnut or hickory nut. They almost look like limes and then turn brown. Here em falling through the trees all the time now that ita Fall
The limes turning black sounds identical to black walnut. Black walnut leaves are fairly similar to ash leaves. But Maple leaves are very different from Ash. A maple leaf is what is on the Canadian flag.
This was a great and informative video James. Ty. As an Industrial Arts teacher (woodshop) I'm inspired to get more into this and maybe with my students. I just need to research whether there are similar sites/tools for Australian trees. Damo
I have been waiting for someone to do a video like this I even spent $5 and getting an Tree finder app and from watching your video it is the same one that you use the tree ID
Great idea, @@WoodByWright, on the individual tree videos. Perhaps showing the trees in different seasons too. Also, showing dead or felled tree examples. (Love your vids/lessons - BTW.)
Thanks for the input and search venues. I've got one that I can't seem to identify. There are several of this tree on the University of Louisville main campus. The lead is a cluster of narrow leaves, bark is more smooth than rough, and the roots are close to the surface and cascade over the sidewalks with zero damage to the concrete. I've put it out there on a couple of the apps and none could automatically identify it. Waiting to hear back from the "community".
At 9:31"when your running the the woods your going to come across DZEE NUTS" my hat off to you OG that was so BA I had to like but I sub to see what's next 😆👍👍
Need help on identifying this tree and wood can you help cuz it's very unique looking would greatly appreciate it!! None on your video looks like this?? Humm...Sadly we had to tk it dw didn't want to!! Cuz really looked special but was growing weird 😕 & cming out of the ground...No other tree looks like this one!! Hit me up when u can! I jus want to know if smone would like to mk smthing out of this beautiful wood 🪵 😩 too nice to burned in our bomb fire 🔥 Thank u much James
I’m so excited! According to this video, I have 3 red oak saplings growing at the border in my back yard!!! There are black walnuts growing a few feet to the south and west of them though so if they grow faster, or poison them with their juglone, they may Abort their development. If not however, I wonder how many years it will take for them to mature to 7 or so feet tall?
They'll probably grow a bit slower being closer to the black walnut but they'll be fine. Generally you can expect the tree to grow in diameter about 1/8 -1/4 of an inch per year. So I'm assuming right now the trunk is about 4 in in diameter. So when they're smaller they tend to grow a bit faster and you might end up getting it another inch in diameter every two to three years right now but that will slow down once it gets around 8 in. You're probably looking at another 50 to 60 years until they are of a size that would be malleable. Though a lot of people like to wait until they're around 100 to 150 years old.
Really liked the bit about the box elder maple. The winged seed pods were a dead giveaway to me that it was a maple, but it was odd that it didn’t have the distinctive 🍁 leaf shape. So I posted it on iNaturalist. The program has brilliant AI not only for identifying trees, but practically everything living. Once the program looks at the photo you post it and people from all over can evaluate if they know it and agree with the ID or suggest something else. A crowdsourced peer review for the asking. 🌱
Great video with lots of good info. Where I am is on the prairie, and there are no trees that grow naturally here, except some species native to the river valley. This means that every tree in my city was planted by a person. There are lots of elm trees, poplars and cottonwood trees. There are also some birch and mountain ash trees and lots of spruce and pine. Pretty much all the hardwoods for woodworking have to come here on a truck from Ontario, Québec or the maritimes.

I love this video! Trying to know the tree's like my Grandfather use too.Passing it on to my kids.Thank you!
In my many long years of consuming TH-cam content this is by far the most helpful. Well done!
Thanks. glad I could help! I love walking through the woods!
Wood By Wright we are in the gutter cleaning business, so I’ve always been curious on when the leaves fall and what specific types they are!
Thank you for taking up your time and teaching me…..❤. Hope you keep doing these amazing videos ❤
This was the most comprehensive, clear, thorough video I have found so far in identifying trees. Great video!!
Thanks. That means a lot.
You missed the H in W-H-I-T-E
Thank you for sharing all your information about trees I love the video and will be watching again 💞
That is a running gag on the channel. We have fun with spelling here.
Awesome video full of knowledge
Thank you for the educational video James.

thanks man. this is the one I used. amzn.to/2gHAvmr the video was shot on my cell phone and the audio was recorded through my normal studio camera.
Very educative and inspiring. Many thanks to Authur for being a courteous companion
Also I read there is a star in the twig of a cottonwood when you break it in half. Wonderful video and very helpful!

You made it informative enough that I feel confident the next time I'm out and looking for what kind of trees are around me. Thanks.
Thanks man that means a lot.
Great video friend. This helped a lot. I owned a landscaping business that sables in tree work and this is perfect. You moved at a comfy steady pace and added no fluff
I've really been needing to know kinds of wood recently for different things, and this has helped a lot (unnecessary comment to boost algorithm 👉😎👉)
I am going to be looking up the shrubs in my yard now! Neat...just taking a photo! How easy! :)
yup for best answer hold a white piece of paper behind the leaf so you get a clear picture of just the leaf.
Thanks for the video! I'm so excited for my tree adventure!!!
Thank you for sharing your knowledge and your beautiful family.

Wow what a coincidence My father was James Wright and he worked in the woods he knew every tree by bark and leaf also.
That is such a cool video. Thank you, will try to be more observant in my next walk
When I saw the larger hickory, I thought maybe you had Shellbark as well as shagbark out there.

Thank you very much for this. i'll let you know how well this method works for me in Jamaica
Sweet! I would love to see what kind of trees you have there!
Thanks for the input and search venues. I've got one that I can't seem to identify. There are several of this tree on the University of Louisville main campus. The lead is a cluster of narrow leaves, bark is more smooth than rough, and the roots are close to the surface and cascade over the sidewalks with zero damage to the concrete. I've put it out there on a couple of the apps and none could automatically identify it. Waiting to hear back from the "community".
Here is another good site I just found. post a picture here and they will help identify it. www.reddit.com/r/whatsthisplant/
At 9:31"when your running the the woods your going to come across DZEE NUTS" my hat off to you OG that was so BA I had to like but I sub to see what's next 😆👍👍

You can always send me an email. You can find it in the about tab on my TH-cam page? Or there's a contact me form on my website.
I’m so excited! According to this video, I have 3 red oak saplings growing at the border in my back yard!!! There are black walnuts growing a few feet to the south and west of them though so if they grow faster, or poison them with their juglone, they may Abort their development. If not however, I wonder how many years it will take for them to mature to 7 or so feet tall?
They'll probably grow a bit slower being closer to the black walnut but they'll be fine. Generally you can expect the tree to grow in diameter about 1/8 -1/4 of an inch per year. So I'm assuming right now the trunk is about 4 in in diameter. So when they're smaller they tend to grow a bit faster and you might end up getting it another inch in diameter every two to three years right now but that will slow down once it gets around 8 in. You're probably looking at another 50 to 60 years until they are of a size that would be malleable. Though a lot of people like to wait until they're around 100 to 150 years old.
@@WoodByWright WWOW!!! Thank you 😊
Great video mr wright sor lots information
Thanks for the information friend. 👍✌️
I went to school in Pennsylvania and tree knowledge was taught. That was way back then.
This was great. I work wood and this is super informative. Keep it up!👍
Thanks. I love playing the what tree is this game.
Really liked the bit about the box elder maple. The winged seed pods were a dead giveaway to me that it was a maple, but it was odd that it didn’t have the distinctive 🍁 leaf shape. So I posted it on iNaturalist. The program has brilliant AI not only for identifying trees, but practically everything living. Once the program looks at the photo you post it and people from all over can evaluate if they know it and agree with the ID or suggest something else. A crowdsourced peer review for the asking. 🌱
thanks man! I will have to check that one out!
🙂
Great video with lots of good info. Where I am is on the prairie, and there are no trees that grow naturally here, except some species native to the river valley. This means that every tree in my city was planted by a person. There are lots of elm trees, poplars and cottonwood trees. There are also some birch and mountain ash trees and lots of spruce and pine. Pretty much all the hardwoods for woodworking have to come here on a truck from Ontario, Québec or the maritimes.
+Jesse Terpstra yup some people get all the luck and some get stuck.
You saved me on a woody Plants Mid Term, Thanks!
LOL thanks Justin!
Very respectful little boy.
Wow that's great, very interesting and informative 👍
