Tree ID please....

Homeowner said its boxwood. I've never seen a boxwood this large. DBH is approx 22". A 16" round, while heavy, is not as heavy as a 16" x 18" round of maple. Splits easy enough, not stringy and very white. Splits almost exactly like Ash. Seems to be a bit on the soft side.

 

[CaseyForrest]

Not very dense.

Looks like some of Tulip Poplar I have cut.

Pictures of branches and buds would help

Need more pics ,different angles show the grain, but Ash maybe.

I googled boxwood to see what it was. At least from the few pictures I think it looks more like box elder than boxwood but I'm no expert on either of those.

Box Elder

Closest I can come with only that pic is Tulip tree. I could be wrong though.

I'm familiar with the red stains. He didn't show any close ups of that tree and wasn't sure if the rounds in the background were from a different species.

 

[CaseyForrest]

Could be tulip. Definitely not ash or elder.

 

[CaseyForrest]

No buds or branches available. I'll get some more pics tonite.

The other species is maple.

What about that brush pile, is it gone?

 

[CaseyForrest]

It may be by next weekend. I'm going back for the last two loads.

That is a possibility.

Case why do you say it ain't Ash?

Do you know what Bass Wood looks like? I think you got yourself a bunch of it... White inside, easy to cut and split, no growth rings like a hardwood.

The weight isn't there. This wood is very wet and it's no where near as heavy.

I could be wrong.
