Member # 654 posted                       Jiffymouse The second picture sure looks like liquid amber to me. I have 25 liquid amber trees. Never seen one like a shrub before. My liquid amber have seed balls that have a lot of spikes on them. First they are green and later they will be brown and then fall off. Hope this helps. Let us know what they all are after you find out.

Had several of those trees in louisiana hated those trees..Got to Tx see they sale those trees here ..lol Want be one in my yard at this new house in Tx..I always broke lawn mower belts because of those balls on that treee..lol bbbbbbbbb Posts: 270 | From: TX | Registered: Apr 2003  |  Logged: 64.12.96.70 Jiffymouse guests posted                 Tx, the only thing worse than hitting the balls with a lawnmower is stepping on them with bare feet!! I think that one of them looks like a sweet gum also, but I don't have a clue where it would have come from! my land is in the middle of what used to be a pine tree farm. so... but I did see your other post. and I did look up the silver leaf maple. hopefully I will find out soon. also find out what is eating oak looking tree!

It's pretty close but I can't tell... crumple a leaf, and you will know right away if it's a Sweet Bay. bbbbbbbbb Posts: 11227 | From: Cedar Hill Washington | Registered: Aug 2002  |  Logged: 66.248.101.194
