I am assuming it is technically a shrub since it has more than one trunk. Here is what I know...

It is about 9-12 feet tall and rounded. It is deciduous with bright red leaves and berries in the fall (see pics). It has scaly "bark" on the branches. I forget if it flowers (spring was so long ago, you know), but it attracts a heck of a lot of bees! These pictures were taken today- I love the red of the leaves!

I'd love to see your photos, but it says "forbidden" and that I am not allowed access. I think you need to try again posting the link.. Sounds interesting!!

It may be my internet or the webshots site,
but I couldn't get into to it again...
Just took forever for the blue bar to even get into the middle..

Someone else check the connection for me,
to see if it's me or not me!!!
*that is the question* [Smile] LOL!!!

it kinda has the look of a burning bush...euonymus alatus...i guess the best way to see is in the fall when the leaves turn the most brilliant colors of bright red. they have a very identifiable stem structure.

other than that..i dont know....but good luck!

THAT'S IT!!!! Euonymus alatus! I looked up several pictures on the web and that is definitely it! I think one website actually called it a weed.... but it sure is pretty! Thank you, all! Sorry you couldn't see it, Weezie, but thank you for trying!
