Good Looking Trees
Muddy
USA
I was recently in Monterrey, California and one tree that’s common there is the Cypruss https://calscape.com/ExtData/allimages/P…
I fucking love those things. I would put them all over my block if I could get away with it.
Also I do really like looking at those Mexican Fan Palm trees (think Hollywood the real tall ones) I think when they line the streets that’s looks so sharp. All those out there are about a century old. They aren’t even native to LA but in the 20’s folks wanted Los Angeles to have biblical feel so they planted them. I think that was good foresight came out to be iconic of that state https://www.arcgis.com/sharing/rest/cont…
Honorable mention to those Oak Trees with Spanish moss you find in Savanah, Georgia. https://innonwestliberty.com/wp-content/…
How about y’all out there?

And yeah Motörhead I could see the appeal. Not gonna miss that house.
This was in Long Island too, it’s all Levitt houses for miles and miles, very dense so everyone is on top each other, making bamboo a BITCH to your neighbors 5 yards away.

Oh, that's not what you meant? Well, in South Florida I have seen some Rainbow Eucalyptus trees that were beautiful. https://www.oneearth.org/species-of-the-…

At the Highlands County Courthouse in central Florida there’s a huge Banyan tree. Kids can walk thru it.
One of the Hurricanes that passed thru Central Florida - maybe Charley ? - damaged it so its not as impressive as it once was
It’s a sight to behold
Read a book about how oaks support the widest variety of insects and other life than any other tree family.
But what I love seeing most is groves of giant conifers, that Oregon used to have so much more of.
Where we lived 15 years ago here in Colorado our neighbor had an Aspen. These bastards spread like bamboo. It had shoots invading our yard. As I mowed the yard I’d make a small trench around the shoot, cut the runner and pour on some Round-Up in hopes the runners would take it back to the tree. Man it was annoying!
I do miss the colors of NYS.
