Thanks for watching! I have found large tracts of Bear (scrub) Oak on some of the hills and mountains of Southern New England. It is especially common in the Blue Hills just south of Boston MA.
So glad you’re back. I just made a beginner winter ID tree vid on my channel too. But you’re my tree guy on YT. You know loads more than I’ve managed to retain thus far. Id kill to have a teacher like you. Thanks for sharing.
Thanks for watching Kevin...I appreciate you taking the time to record the trees, wildflowers, mushrooms and more on your property. Your knowledge and passion for your 'outdoor hobbies' is contagious!
Thanks for watching...the chocolate works well for winter tree ID but would melt in the summer! Instead I used a bavarian cream donut to teach about lava flows last summer (on my other channel). I always make sure to consume my teaching props upon completion of each hike.
Appreciate your channel. If you had to pick plant 3 trees in an urban forest setting what would be your top 3 large specimens and top 3 small for under power lines and small backyards? Thanks!
Thanks for watching! Many of the trees I have recorded for this channel in a natural setting are also commonly used in landscaping. Pin, Scarlet and Northern Red Oaks grow to full height (60+ feet) and are commonly available at nurseries. Red Maple grows quickly and has good fall color but does need alot of room to grow. Sugar Maple requires better soil conditions than Red Maple but lives longer and does not grow to full size so quickly. Thornless varieties of Honey Locust are very tolerant of urban conditions and are common street trees. Sweet Gum is very handsome in the summer and spectacular in the fall but not suitable in for lawn areas due to the numerous spiny fruits that litter the ground for months after they fall to the ground. Flowering Dogwood would work for under a powerline as it rarely exceeds 30' in height and has showy flowers, fall foliage and winter berries. Eastern Redbud is similar in size as Flowering Dogwood but less tolerant of sandy or highly acid soils. Star Magnolia is not a native Magnolia but is very showy in early spring and would remain small enough to plant under a powerline. Videos of most these trees are on this channel for your viewing to help you visualize what they can offer. Your local nursery or extension service can offer advice on what grows best in your local area...Good Luck!
@@barkinuptherighttree4698 thanks again for your feedback. We love service berry Amelanchier, redbuds, varies small maples for under power lines. This year's big tree picks were Tuliptree, Bur Oak and Swamp White Oak. Non Natives we use Ginkos and use Dawn Redwood in park setting.
Thank you for the generous offer Joey. While residing in increasingly suburbanized Warren County Ohio I often found Southern Indiana a great place to explore. There was always a great variety of trees, fossils and lots of peace and quiet. I even recorded Black and Sandbar Willows for this channel while paddling the White River as well as the rare Yellowwood trees in Brown County. I am currently recording for this channel in central and southern New England and will be residing in that area to assist close family. I would like to record again in the Ohio Valley and will keep your offer in mind for future videos. Thank you again for watching and for your offer.
Those scrub oaks are adorable. Thanks again for the master class. The repetition is definitely helpful.

Outstanding! Another excellent video
Thanks for watching...part 2 is coming soon with a focus on White and Post Oaks!
@@barkinuptherighttree4698 Thank you will be looking forward to that!
Another great video, I especially appreciate the little details on black vs scarlet oak, I still often struggle to distinguish them even with foliage
Thanks for watching Bobby...these two can be tricky to tell apart but easy in November when the Scarlets are ablaze with color!
this is a tremendous help to me
Thanks for watching! Oaks are valuable for building materials and firewood and very common in some parts of the country. Good Luck

15 minutes into the video, I would have eaten that chocolate bar by now. As always I’m enjoying watching and learning from your videos.
