| Help ID a hairy tree please!
Hi everyone, I just found this site while trying to ID a tree in my garden and glad I did!
We have a pretty hairy tree that has been driving us crazy trying to find it. This one looks pretty young as its only about 5-6' and has been throwing up a few babies across the garden. We lived in NY for a few yesrs and had a few there too, so were very suprised to find one in the UK.
The whole trunk is furry and where the newest shoots are appearing it is a lovely deep pink. The leaves look like the service tree, but it doesnt mention them being so hairy? It is very soft and not spikey, you could stroke it all day.
Ill get a pic over the weekend, just let me know what would help ID it and any other info you might need.
Thanks!
