A friend of mine sent me some pics with trees from Texas. I have no clue what kind it is. Maybe somebody here knows.

Greetings from germany

Too early for flowers, but the leaves on that picture with the painted finger nail looks basswoody, although those pictured lack saw-toothed margins. So, could very well be redbud. I'm not familiar with it, just from books. I think redbud flowers before it leaves out.

The heart-shaped leaf with no serrations and the swollen petiole at the base of the leaf blade are all identifying characteristics of redbud (aka Judas-tree).  LeeB nailed it! :)

I've learned to spot them pretty well. They are really hazardous to my health around my place. Just let me screw up and cut down one of Lindy's red buds and see how unhealthy it is for me.  :o
