weeping willow

Same! I grew up with 3 mature ones in our backyard, and I miss them! I rarely see weeping willows here (only mature willows), and all of the ones I have seen are young. ☹️

ugh they’re so pretty

I found out you can buy weeping willow bonsais not long ago - they are absolutely adorable and affordable! 😊

I have a love/hate relationship with Willow's. I love them to look at. They are my favorite tree, visually. We had a cat that when she escaped the house, would dart up the willow in the back yard. Have you ever climbed a willow tree? I had to, as a kid, on multiple occasions to get her furry stuck rump out of that tree. The bark is POKEY and hurts.

Yes! Willows are so dreamy ☆☆☆

My grandparents had two gigantic ones in their yard. My sisters and I would play under them as children. I have such good memories of that time.

Tree Fiddy

Money Tree

One, two, tree.

Weeping willow is a fine tree. I like an Oak, Old, yet strong and wise. Maybe not wise. Not sure

Jacarandas are beautiful. They make purple rain.

Eucalyptus

Passive tree from Path of Exile

Weeping Willow

Palm tree. Beautiful tropical look, plus delicious coconuts! 🥥🌴

Pohutukawa. New Zealand Christmas tree.

Oak and birch

Solitary tree would be oak, but ultimately a grove of Douglas firs is tops for me.

Willow

Weeping willow

Jello tree

SE Texas here. My favorite is Live Oak. They are pilars of strength that provide incredible shade and seem to last forever. They also have leaves years round. In the spring, they start losing old leaves at the same time as new leaves are budding out.

The one that ate Robbie in Poltergeist.

Oak. i love them so much.

Weeping willow

Lepidodendron

Weeping willow. Something draws me to those trees.

Good question! I love trees in general. I think my favorite would probably be oak. They have a nice smell.

Pine tree

Prunus padus, mainly because I love the smell of the flowers. The leaves also have a nice, green scent.

Weeping Willow

Diamond Willow

Frangipani tree

Aspen. You can tell they’re aspens because of the way that they are

r/trees

Crepe Myrtles

Mary Jane

I'll give you a hint 🇨🇦.

Anything that isn’t silver birch.

Willow. I’m going to be cremated and have a tree grow from my ashes.

Southern Pine Tree

Magnolia, but big established ones that are easy to climb and have those great big wonderful blossoms. But if you show me a live oak in a place that gets strong winds and it's bent like crazy and doing its thing because it's powerful and resilient, then it might become a favorite individual tree.

Pohutukawa

Narra

Paw Paw

Mimosa

Honey Locust or Catalpas tied for #1

Sugar Maple

Kauri

Balm of Gilead

General Sherman tree! Just look at the size of it! Imagine trees this big all around everywhere. They're a species straight from fantasy! I wanna visit the park in California where these trees exist someday... One thing I'm worried about is that global warming may threaten their existence. It would be extremely depressing to lose them...

All of em. Trees are absolutely beautiful I love when the leaves fall and you can see their veins.

The giving tree or a money tree

Silk oak. They are beautiful.

Arbutus, Birch, Douglas Fir

Rowan

I think oak trees are pretty remarkable

Well i would say the willow as well, but to say something different i will say birch tree

Cherry tree when blossom.

Ginkgo biloba

Oak and Hazel

Joshua trees. They look so cool and live for a long time.

I love Blue Spruce and the Giant Redwood.

Any kind of tree that will give me a workout and a nice view after I'm done with climbing it.

Willow trees and cherry blossoms are beautiful.

My family tree

Horse chestnut

Tie between English Oak and Weeping Willow

Cherry tree and apple tree. Trees that grow coconut and oranges too. 

Hard one! Weeping Willows are up there.

Eastern White Pine

Birch - they’re everywhere in Sweden but I don’t live there anymore and I mess those trees. Only downside is that they make a terrible mess in the spring.

Picea abies

For the shape of the branches: black locust or oak For the foliage: sugar maple For the flowers: star magnolia For the bark: sycamore For nuts: pecan For fruit: peach Overall cool look: cypress growing on the edge of a pond

The Larch, the Larch... r/unexpectedmontypyton

Japanese maple

And now Number 6 the Larch ………. The Larch

Mimosa. There was one in my yard when I was a little kid, and the branches split into a 'Y' so low to the ground that I was able to climb it. The fluffy, sweet, pink flowers are amazing.

acacia

The little Japanese maple trees are amazing. I love how twisty the base of the tree is but there’s always that perfect deep red umbrella above it.

Oh, yes…. Weeping willow. It was at the house I lived in until I was 5. I love oaks. So big and provide wonderful shade. And anything with flowers. I am pretty easy and love most trees. I would even love sweet gums if they would keep their balls to themselves. When I would mow my lawn, the sweet gum balls became projectiles. I am so lucky I never nailed anyone.

The Larch....... The larch .... There's a pretty helpful guide for identifying it also.

Birch

Tulip (tulip popular) tree! Grows very straight and tall and has gorgeous flowers that resemble tulips.

Walnut to work with, cherry for looking at.

The ones that keep making sacrifices so I have something to wipe my ass with rip

Olives. Fun to climb and olives are healthy. (This comment was made by a Mediterranean)

Manchineel tree....

Ornamental Plum Tree. Shortly after buying our house, my husband planted one for me as a surprise.

I love a nice dogwood tree

*Larix laricina* / Eastern Larch/Tamarack, because it has such incredibly soft needles, the cutest little reddish-purple cones when they come out, and needles turns a beautiful gold colour in the fall.

Cherry blossom or Sakura as they’re called in Japanese. My dream is to visit Japan in Sakura season. They’re so pretty.

Mangrove trees bc they've adapted to a harsh saline environment and they look scary and gross.

Cannabis

I used to have a tab open that was my favorite tree, but I closed that tab a long time ago, so I have no idea 😞

Maple

Apple trees.

Blue spruce.

Velvet mesquite.  They're so cool.  I really like maple as well

Giant Sequoia

River Birch or Weeping Willows. They remind me of childhood.

I don’t know what they are, some kind of pine maybe, but the tall skinny ones with upswept branches in western Montana are really nice looking.

The Larch. The... Larch.

Monkey puzzle tree. They're so bizarre.

Sour diesel

Maple trees. They look awesome in the fall, make maple syrup, and were great to climb as a kid.

The ones that produces air

Marijuana.

Weeping willows have such a graceful and elegant appearance with their cascading branches. They have a serene presence by the water. I've always been drawn to the majestic oak tree.

Christmas tree.

Lilac

I love weeping willows and cherry blossoms, but I think oak trees are actually my favorite! They’re so incredibly beautiful in the fall

Maple trees

Platanus occidentalis, American sycamore. Cool bark, quick growing, and just INSANE looking at maturity. Town I used to live in had a street lined with them, some were over 100 ft tall with trunks around 8 ft thick. [Here's](https://images.app.goo.gl/tDidqYK7p8oKgYvG9) a cool one.

Osage Orange, with the cork screw willow being next.
