And why do you like it so much?
Ipê (common name), both the Handroanthus and Tabebuia kinds
you think cherry blossons are pretty? you ain’t seen nothing yet
The walnut tree. Its leaves are dense so it casts a cohesive shadow, perfect for shelter from the sun. I LOVE how it smells, especially when developing walnuts, and green walnuts are entirely unique in how they taste!
Delonix regia, the original flamboyant.
Scots pine
We have a big maple in our yard and more through the neighborhood. The sound of wind running through their leaves is very calming.
Araucaria species. Because of their shape. They are the best.
I also really really like Magnolia trees, the large grandiflora ones ( those with the large glossy leaves and white flowers). I mean the flowers are amazing, but the way their trunks develop in very large specimens is so good, those semi buttressed roots and aerial offshoots hanging down are crazy amazing.
So yeah, araucarias and magnolias.
American Chestnut. Have a few seedlings we planted in the front yard. Super excited to be part of the process of restoring them
Weeping willow trees. We had one at my childhood home. When it was sold, the new owners tore it out. I was very sad.
Don’t worry, it’s back. Those things refuse to die.
I am fairly certain there are no trees on the property anymore. I don’t know what they had against trees, but they tore out everything!

Being the most common tree in America doesn’t make the sycamore any less awesome.
They’re big and their canopy is lush. Their limbs are all twisty and knobbly. They’ve got huge leaves that sound amazing blowing in the wind or crunching underfoot. The colloquialism for their seedpods is hilarious and the pods themselves are almost as cool as sweetgum seed pods.
Just some great trees all around.

I’m partial to AVL trees, they are 20% faster.
