Transition Thursday

I’ve decided to follow 7 of my favorite trees on campus throughout the seasons.  Come join me.

Fraxinus americana – White Ash.  Saucer Magnolia in the background.

Ginkgo biloba – Ginkgo

Fraxinus americana – Row of White ash. ::Swoon::

Liquidambar styraciflua – American Sweetgum

Quercus alba - White oak

Magnolia x soulangiana – Saucer Magnolia (White ash in foreground)

Malus x ‘Prairifire’ – Prairifire Crabapple This tree has a sad beginning. All the rain this year really caused a horrible outbreak of apple scab (a fungus) and caused all the leaves to drop super early. It’ll be beautiful in Spring though. Sit tight.
