I believe that. They sure can put a smile on my face, reading their stuff.  smiley_bucktooth

Bald Cypress.

I'll admit that looks like what I sawed. The density of BC (green) is 51 lbs/ft^3 and we measured 52. There's still the mystery of my friends' observation of the blossoms in the spring????

The plant in the original post is Albizia julibrissin. Native Iran through Japan. Commonly called mimosa in the eastern US.

The original post (by woodhaven [rip]) contained no picture, so which are you referring to?

I've never heard of a MONKEY PUZZLE  :D......but I'm guessing that's what it is.  :D

House up the street has several monkey puzzle trees that have to be close to 100 ft tall ok maybe 75 ft. They drop bowling ball size and weight seeds.
The First 70 years of childhood is always the hardest.

My granddad used to call those a "monkey tree"?

GATreeGrower

Ah.  I see now.  Solved the monkey puzzle.

Mimosa can have rough bark when it gets old but it usually does not live long enough here in east Texas.  I have seen mimosa yard trees in west Texas that were 45+ years old and had rough bark (not necessarily big, just old).
You may think that you can or may think you can't; either way, you are right.
