thanks - id rather it be a beech. my coworker and i could have chance to dig this, next springCan we get a real close shot of leaves?
I can at least rule/rule OUT crabapple with a better shot of a single leaf.
(Also, I personally don’t care, but plan on getting ‘blitzed’ about terminology)
plum could be a good call there, thank youProbably NOT a beech. Leaves are too finely serrated and veins on the leaves aren't all that prominent. It looks to me like an ornamental plum, or a crabapple.
Pluuum! That’s where I recognize those leaves from!!Probably NOT a beech. Leaves are too finely serrated and veins on the leaves aren't all that prominent. It looks to me like an ornamental plum, or a crabapple.
I saw shiny rounded leaves and thought pear tooPyrus sp?
Might be a pear, but purple leaves on a pear aren't common. Pears, plums, apples and a few others are in the Rosacea family. They have similar leaves. This is most likely a plum, because of the leaf color.I saw shiny rounded leaves and thought pear too
i think it is...unless these images below are more off season/fall...Looks like a Bradford Pear with some weird colors.
.....ehhh, maybe not.
Yeah, the ones I see usually look purplish in fall.i think it is...unless these images below are more off season/fall...

Every spring, all over in South Carolina, we see yards, abandoned lots, natural areas, roadsides, and, in some cases, forests filled with white flowers....hgic.clemson.edu

Uh, those are all photos of Autumn color, not what you've posted here originally. The most obvious answer is typically the right one...This isn't some cryptic form of pear. It's a purple leaved plum--one of the most commonly planted landscape trees in the Eastern U.S.i think it is...unless these images below are more off season/fall...

you could be right about that, given the color of the tree out here at work and the time of yearUh, those are all photos of Autumn color, not what you've posted here originally.

thanks. trunk had smooth dark silver slate color, and then it had the horizontal tick-marks everywhere on it. like a cherry treeLooks like pear to me too. Lots of pear varieties here have bronze color at certain times of year.
A closer look at bark on the trunk and a good look at small shoots and leaf attachment should help narrow down the possibilities.
