Trees

how old are they? do they get pollinated? did they bloom? are they in good health? are they grafted or grown from seed?

I have no idea why your kumquat tree never bore fruit nor had blooms. However, I also have no idea if you live in a frost free zone, the substance you use for fertilizer, if you change the type of fertilizer during the time when you want growth and the time when you want blooms, the type of soil in which your tree is planted, nor the amount of sunlight your tree receives. All of those are important. Why don't you ask at a fertilizer store or a county agent?

Bananas are yellow. Bananas are yellow in hot places like Africa and Spain. But Great Britan bananas are pink because there is not alot of sun there so they don't ripen very well !!!!

Lemon seed is not pollinated. The lemon tree has flowers, which are pollinated by insects and wind. The pollinated flowers grow into lemons, which contain seeds.

Drupes have a fleshy outer fruit and a hard pit with a seed in it. Examples are mangoes, coffee beans, dates, peaches, plums, almonds and apricots.

According to the University of Florida, guava trees bred from cuttings, a common cultivation method, take root no deeper than 18 inches from the surface of the ground. Secondary shoots called root suckers often grow from the roots near the trunk.

There are many different species of Eugenia. Some of them are edible and some are not, so it is important to know what species you have. Web search the particular species, or check the Web Link to the left for more information especially on the more edible types.

poplar has a good density and is a popular wood used for cabinet making and for shelving units.

poplar is not as hard as Oak, Maple, Mahogany, Walnut and other hardwoods.

Poplar is harder than pine wood and not as porous.

The scientific name for pines is Pinus. For pines are members of the Pinaceae family. The specific epithet indicates what type of pine wood it is. For example, the wood of the Eastern white pine is called Pinus strobus.

Bianbai wood comes from the tree Platycladus Orientalis (generic Chinese arborvitae), a large evergreen shrub or small to medium-sized tree. The common name for this tree is Book-Leaf Pine. This tree is native to China, Japan, Taiwan, and parts of the Republic of Russia and the Ukraine. It can be successfully grown--although considered an exotic--in such diverse areas as Poland, Iran, France, New Zealand, and Hawaii, USA, as it is a hardy tree and tolerates a wide variety of soil types and climate conditions.

DESCRIPTION and BIOLOGY:

P. orientalis rarely exceeds the height of 20m in nature; cultivated, it often forms multiple stems with a dense habit, usually broadly conical with ascending branches from bare stems. Leaves are light green or yellow-green, becoming brown after 3 or 4 seasons, persistent, scale-like, in opposite-decussate pairs, and have no glands.

Pollen cones terminal, small (2-3 mm long), seed cones 20-25 mm long, 10-18mm wide when closed, glaucous green at first, turning reddish-brown, usually have 6-8 fleshy scales in an opposite-decussate arrangement, with a deeply recurved dorsal hook below the tip of each scale; this protuberance is the apical part of the bract, around which the fleshy scale develops after the ovules are fertilized, to nearly engulf the bract; scales glaucous when growing, maturing and ripening to bright brown; lower 4 scales fertile with 2-3 seeds occurring adaxially near the base of the lowest pair, only

one on the upper pair.

Seeds 5-7mm long, 3-4mm diameter, more or less ovate, wingless. Seed-bearing begins, on average, at 3 years.

This is a monotypic genus; the generic name comes from the Greek word platyclados (with a broad stem). The Greek word results in two English words plate and clad which conjures up the image of plates arranged in a rack as the tree's foliage appears when viewed from afar. The peculiar arrangement of upright branchlets and flattened lateral twigs gives this tree its unusual leafing habit and explains the origin of its common name (Book-Leaf Pine).

PRODUCTS:

Timber: Wood close-grained and knotty, heartwood dark brown, sapwood white or cream. The timber is used for gateposts and furniture.

Medicine: Parts of P. orientalis were previously used to treat scurvy. Leaf extracts have been shown to inhibit bacterial growth.

Essential Oils: Leaves, wood, bark, and seed shells of have been steam-distilled, and the resulting essential oils and their constituents analysed by GC/MS (mass spectrometry). Essential oils from leaves and seed shells have been found to contain more than 20 mono- and sesqui-terpenes, the most important being alpha-pinene (constituting 40% of the oil), DELTA3-carene, and cedrol.

Other: Seeds from P. orientalis contain terpenoids.

Uses:

Ornamental: The Chinese arbovitae is planted in many gardens, especially for its striking pale green foliage with odd-looking glaucous cones.

Boundary, Barrier, or Support: It tolerates pruning and is therefore used as a hedge plant.

Other: This tree is highly esteemed in mystical Chinese folklore, and was planted within tombs of ancient emperors. It's seeds were also placed within the caskets. More recently, P. orientalis has become popular as a hiking staff/walking stick.

The price of wood varies heavily depending on width and length of wood. Cedar wood can cost anywhere between three dollars to thirty three dollars per plank. The quality of the wood also affects the price.

Wood grain is the rough texture in wood that is made out of tiny little gaps and holes in the wood. It is caused by the way the tree grows: in rings which are produced once a year.

Extremely. A balsa plant grows from seed to market size--80 feet tall x 30 inch diameter--in five years. And it weighs so little you don't need a log skidder to harvest it--just cut it down, remove the limbs and throw the whole tree over your shoulder.

Birch Bark canoes are white on the outside with specks of black. They also can have carvings to represent a certain tribe. On the inside they are a tan or a light brown with carved stripes. It may have a rope on the edge too.

Trees are harvested by logging! you could either clear cut which means cut all the trees in the area or selective cutting which is selecting the trees you want and selective cutting is better for the environment

spruce, pine & balsa are the big three.

Cedar is hard wood. It is from angiosperm trees.

The type of tree and seed makes it hardwood or softwood. - In very general terms , most trees that have protected seeds (like an acorn) are hardwoods. Trees that drop unprotected seeds on the ground, like conifers, are softwoods.
