Non-Native ID from Louisiana
« on: December 09, 2007, 12:07:16 am »
Here is one for the foresters. We saw this tree at Marion, LA today while visiting Pineywoods. It is not native to the area.

Heck, from the bark, I could have swore it was chinaberry.  I like pears when they get a little soft :).  Pear preserves are real nice too ;D.
