Re: What tree is this?

Hi @Tree,

 

Thank you for your question about identifying a tree at your property.

Is it possible to get some closer photos of the tree? Maybe some of the leaves? 

Is there a particular reason you ask? Or is it just out of interest?

If you crush one of its leaves in your hand, does it give off a distinct smell, somewhat like menthol?

My thought is it could be a Camphor Laurel, but it is extremely difficult to tell.

Allow me to tag @Noelle, @Dave-1 and @Noyade to see if they have any ideas.

 

Let me know how you go with those extra photos.

Afternoon @Tree 

Mmmm I dont recognise the type of tree straight away. I dont think its a camphor Laurel but not sure.

I do know there are a few apps that you can use with your phone. Just take a photo of the leaf and it gives you an indication on waht it is. Types of bark can also be used but not sure if theer is an app for bark.
