oldtimer Posted April 7, 2010 Share Posted April 7, 2010 Box elders leaves seem to be separated on individual stems. To me it looks more like a variation of the sugar maple known as black maple or acer nigrum: http://www.cas.vanderbilt.edu/bioimages/pages/compare-maples.htm Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CECAA850 Posted April 7, 2010 Share Posted April 7, 2010 I knew your hearing was shot ..but never figured your eyes were going too. Everything north of the border is showing a little wear. Everything to the south seems to be holding it's own. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Moderators dtel Posted April 7, 2010 Moderators Share Posted April 7, 2010 sorry amy, i don't think it looks like a dtel. but it might after you crush it up and smell it like oldtimer suggests Don't look like me, but if you want something to crush up and smell try the California state plant. It's so popular they even look for them with helicopters and when they find them they send in special people to bring them out the woods, they say they grow like weeds !

Now where was that funny looking clip with the feather on in?? dunno if south park exceeds your guys' generational tolerances, but last weeks episode is right in line with this and absolutely hilarious (to a guy that grew up with south park) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
