although difficult to distinguish only by leaves, the "pin oak" in the video is likely northern pin oak (quercus ellipsoidalis), which grows widely in MN, WI and IA. quercus palustris (pin oak) has a more southern distribution, although it can be planted widely across the US as a landscape tree, including in MN. quercus palustris tends to have even deeper sinuses than quercus ellipsoidalis and somewhat similar to quercus coccinea (scarlet oak), although the leaves of all 3 species can look nearly the same, and variation exists even on the same tree. quercus coccinea has a natural distribution to the south and east of MN, sometimes overlapping that of quercus palustris.
PLEASE DO A VIDEO ON THE APPALACHIAN FORESTS OF PENNSYLVANIA. This was the most helpful video I have seen. as a novice wishing to learn more, I wish information access was easier

Are all those trees with lime green leaves emerging early spring, on super thin (usually) trunks of white, among the balsam firs, white and black spruces, and white and red pines that I see along 61 on lake superior...trembling aspens? i always thought they were thin birches. they have such a glowing soft lime green color. thanks for the video.

Hi Bob, What I want to know (I may have missed hearing it on here) is about acorns on oaks. Does the Burr oak and White oak produce acorns annually and does the Red oak produce acorns every 2 years ? That is what I want to learn. Thank you Sir. I am from Minnetonka (trivial !)
The hornbeam (ironwood) that he showed is actually hop hornbeam. The American hornbeam (musclewood) has smooth bark that looks muscular. The leaves are also slightly different.
I agree with most varieties only disagree with Eastern American cottonwood which is very similar to Lombardy poplar leaves and the cottonwood leave you are describing is more ressemblance to balsam poplar.

Hi. Great video. Thank you and God bless, Mr Knudson! Bryan, I'm an amateur dendrologist (and drummer, hahaha) who grew up in Chicago, along the Little Calumet River. In our sizeable yard was a stately Eastern Cottonwood, a Honeylocust, a Silver Maple and others. Across the river I could see Bur Oak, Black Willow, Cottonwood, Ash (spp.) and other trees. The Boxelder in our yard had typical compound leaves with three leaflets, five and rarely seven. (All on one tree.)
Thank you. I love learning the names of the trees through their leaves 🍃.
Explained in detail and with clarity. My salute to you "Sir Knudson". Bravo. Made my walks more interesting and productive.

“This is box elder. It is very common in town, but seldom in the woods.”
Meanwhile 1/3 of my forest. *Vibes in box elder*

You're correct.

Yes, and the Mountain-ash is not a true ash. Also, the Cottonwood is not a type of Aspen, but a Poplar.
@@boomer3150 cottonwood and Aspen are both Populus
@@worganyos Exactly.
Good video thx helped a lot

If my “box elder “ has only three leaflets per leaf. Am I miss Identifying it? Or is it another sp.?
