Re: Unidentified buds in Flower on Tree

I think I'm correct in saying that Ash is the only tree
that has black buds that are also "alternate & opposite", that is the pairs of buds, as you go up the stem are set almost exactly at right angles to each other.

The branches also have a characteristic "Candelabra" shape.
