Brooklyn Trees

Pictures, mostly, of Brooklyn street trees, mostly, as I earn my Trees New York "Citizen Pruner" license. Orson Welles plays me in the movie version.

Dawn Redwood bark



This deciduous conifer is an ancient relative of the sequoia and redwoods. It was thought to be extinct, known only in the fossil records, until 1941 when they were discovered growing in a small mountainous area in China. Now they're back in the land they once roamed (so to speak). Washington Avenue.
