‭A‬‭palmately‬‭lobed‬‭leaf‬
‭A‬‭Palmately‬‭compound‬‭leaf‬
‭A‬‭leaf‬‭with‬‭a‬‭scales‬‭like‬‭pattern‬
‭In‬‭opposite‬‭leaf‬‭arrangement,‬‭two‬‭leaves‬‭emerge‬‭per‬
‭node.‬‭Think‬‭of‬‭this‬‭as‬‭how‬‭your‬‭arms‬‭are‬‭opposite‬‭each‬‭other‬‭on‬‭your‬‭torso.‬

I‭n‬‭alternate‬‭leaf‬‭arrangement,‬‭one‬‭leaf‬
‭emerges‬‭per‬‭node,‬‭giving‬‭the‬‭appearance‬‭of‬‭alternating‬‭leaves.‬
‭In‬‭whorled‬‭leaf‬‭arrangement,‬‭three‬‭or‬‭more‬‭leaves‬
‭ merge‬‭per‬‭node.‬‭I‬‭try‬‭to‬‭remember‬‭this‬‭as‬‭"around‬‭the‬‭whorled‬‭(world)",‬‭because‬‭the‬‭leaves‬
e
‭often‬‭encircle‬‭the‬‭stem.‬

‭Ginkgoaceae:‬‭Ginkgo‬‭Family‬
‭ inkgo‬‭biloba‬‭(Ginkgo)‬‭is‬‭known‬‭as‬‭a‬‭living‬‭fossil.it‬‭was‬‭introduced‬‭in‬‭North‬
G
‭America‬‭and‬‭has‬‭a‬‭straight‬‭trunk‬‭and‬‭an‬‭open‬‭pyramid‬‭shaped‬‭crown‬‭that‬‭becomes‬
‭widespread.It’s‬‭native‬‭to‬‭Southeast‬‭china‬‭and‬‭is‬‭planted‬‭in‬‭the‬‭eastern‬‭united‬‭states‬
‭and‬‭even‬‭on‬‭the‬‭pacific‬‭coast.you‬‭could‬‭also‬‭probably‬‭find‬‭them‬‭in‬‭moist‬‭soils‬‭and‬
‭humid‬‭temperatures.‬‭The‬‭Ginkgo‬‭Biloba‬‭is‬‭only‬‭poisonous‬‭if‬‭you‬‭eat‬‭it‬‭in‬‭large‬

‭ astern‬‭White‬‭Pine‬
E
‭The‬‭Eastern‬‭White‬‭Pine‬‭of‬‭New‬‭England‬‭and‬‭southeastern‬‭Canada‬‭was‬‭the‬‭greeted‬
‭natural‬‭treasure‬‭of‬‭the‬‭American‬‭colonies.‬‭Once‬‭the‬‭world’s‬‭most‬‭important‬‭timber‬
‭tree,‬‭vast‬‭forests‬‭of‬‭White‬‭Pine-Straight,‬‭light,‬‭and‬‭strong‬‭in‬‭proportion‬‭to‬‭its‬
‭weight-were‬‭the‬‭principal‬‭material‬‭for‬‭the‬‭building‬‭of‬‭ships,‬‭houses,‬‭bridges‬‭and‬
‭furniture.‬‭The‬‭virgin‬‭White‬‭Pine‬‭forests,‬‭now‬‭gone‬‭except‬‭for‬‭isolated‬‭old-growth‬
‭prockets,‬‭held‬‭millions‬‭of‬‭tall,‬‭straight‬‭trees.‬‭Efforts‬‭by‬‭the‬‭British‬‭crown‬‭to‬‭reserve‬
‭the‬‭best‬‭trees‬‭for‬‭ships’‬‭masts‬‭were‬‭among‬‭the‬‭annoyances‬‭that‬‭sparked‬‭the‬
‭Revolutionary‬‭War.‬‭The‬‭tree‬‭was‬‭pictured‬‭on‬‭the‬‭revolutionaries’‬‭first‬‭flag‬‭and‬‭is‬
‭the‬‭state‬‭tree‬‭of‬‭Maine.‬

‭ iant‬‭Sequoia‬

‭Almost‬‭all‬‭Giant‬‭Sequoias‬‭are‬‭protected‬‭in‬‭Yosemite,‬‭Kings‬‭Canyon,‬‭and‬‭Sequoia‬
‭National‬‭Parks,‬‭in‬‭4‬‭national‬‭forests,‬‭and‬‭in‬‭state‬‭parks‬‭and‬‭forests.‬‭This‬‭rare‬
‭species‬‭ranks‬‭among‬‭the‬‭world’s‬‭oldest‬‭trees;‬‭with‬‭some‬‭having‬‭been‬‭aged‬‭at‬‭up‬‭to‬
‭3200‬‭years‬‭old.‬‭Giant‬‭Sequoia‬‭has‬‭become‬‭a‬‭popular,‬‭large‬‭ornamental‬‭tree‬‭in‬
‭moist,‬‭cool‬‭climates‬‭along‬‭the‬‭Pacific‬‭Coast‬‭and‬‭around‬‭the‬‭world.‬‭The‬‭lumber‬‭is‬
‭no‬‭longer‬‭used;‬‭sadly,‬‭many‬‭mature‬‭trees‬‭were‬‭cut‬‭and‬‭wasted‬‭in‬‭the‬‭early‬‭logging‬
‭days.‬‭This‬‭species‬‭is‬‭also‬‭known‬‭as‬‭Giant‬‭Redwood‬‭or‬‭Sierra‬‭Redwood.‬

‭ astern‬‭Hophornbeam‬
E
‭Eastern‬‭Hophornbeam‬‭is‬‭a‬‭small‬‭understory‬‭tree‬‭native‬‭to‬‭eastern‬‭North‬‭America.‬
‭Wildlife‬‭including‬‭Northern‬‭Bobwhites,‬‭pheasants,‬‭grouse,‬‭deer‬‭and‬‭rabbits‬‭eat‬‭the‬
‭nutlets‬‭and‬‭buds.‬‭This‬‭tree’s‬‭common‬‭name‬‭refers‬‭to‬‭the‬‭resemblance‬‭of‬‭the‬‭fruit‬
‭clusters‬‭to‬‭hops.‬‭Its‬‭is‬‭also‬‭called‬‭Hardhack‬‭and‬‭Ironwood‬‭for‬‭its‬‭extremely‬‭hard,‬
‭tough‬‭wood,‬‭which‬‭is‬‭used‬‭to‬‭make‬‭tool‬‭handles,‬‭small‬‭wooden‬‭items,‬‭and‬‭fence‬
‭posts.‬‭Although‬‭slow-growing,‬‭it‬‭is‬‭often‬‭planted‬‭as‬‭an‬‭ornamental‬‭tree.‬

‭Cannabaceae‬‭(Hemp‬‭Family)‬
‭ orthern‬‭Hackberry‬
N
‭This‬‭hardwood‬‭tree‬‭is‬‭widespread‬‭in‬‭the‬‭eastern‬‭and‬‭mid-western‬‭United‬‭States.‬
‭Many‬‭birds,‬‭including‬‭quail,‬‭pheasants,‬‭woodpeckers,‬‭and‬‭waxwings,‬‭consume‬‭the‬
‭sweet‬‭fruits.‬‭Branches‬‭of‬‭this‬‭and‬‭other‬‭hackberries‬‭may‬‭become‬‭deformed‬‭by‬
‭bushy‬‭growths‬‭called‬‭witches’-brooms,‬‭produced‬‭by‬‭mites‬‭and‬‭fungi.‬‭The‬‭leaves‬
‭often‬‭bear‬‭rounded‬‭galls‬‭caused‬‭by‬‭tiny,‬‭jumping‬‭plant‬‭lice.‬‭Also‬‭called‬‭Common‬
‭Hackberry,‬‭this‬‭tree;s‬‭common‬‭name‬‭was‬‭probably‬‭derived‬‭from‬‭“hagberry,”‬‭a‬
‭name‬‭used‬‭in‬‭Scotland‬‭for‬‭a‬‭cherry.‬
