I'll have to familiarize myself with them more. That is a very squat cone. I will keep an eye out for them.

What have you got there Tom, heather?

Ron, from today in Cape May County. What do you think? I'm thinking very young Q. falcata.

I dug out the leaves German. I'm going with Populus grandidentata. The young leaves are tomentose beneath, and the Quaking aspen is glaucous beneath with finer marginal teeth.

What say ye to this 'un boys.

Are you going with Pitch Pine, John?

Yeah, that looks bigger than the one I saw. Quite a tree.

I recall bringing some leaves home (I think), may get to them tomorrow. Preliminarily, I have a book that matched it up to Populus grandidentata.

And this one too. Don't see this around here.

Here's an interesting photo. I think I know what it is. German?

I also saw this white oak (I think) on the marsh edge.

Yeah, I opened up the registry and saw there's one 21 feet in circumference. I'd not come close to that. I also notice in the registry a loblolly in Cape May is a champion and I walked right by it two weeks ago. I was amazed at all the loblolly in there, and big ones. Some were in the muck and...

The water is starting to come down in the ponds and swales in Cape May County.

Here's the sky view.

Why, that is a great guess. And correct. For Ron: what does the Big Trees of NJ say about Quercus Phellos? What is the biggest in diameter.

That's my digging tool, to rip plants right outta the ground. Used for perspective.

Here's a couple more about 100 feet away. And maybe I'm stretching the maritime forest too much. These are a mile from the bay, along a salt marsh with tidal river (at this point).

No, not that species.

Yesterday, in a sort of maritime forest (close at least). Several of these. I'm guessing 4 feet in diameter. Can you guess what it is?
