Any tree experts in the house?

Anyone know what type of tree this is? Just found it this year growing in the back of my yard.

They have free trials of those plant/tree identification apps now. They’re pretty cool. I keep meaning to actually buy it after my trial ran out. It can scope things from quite a distance too.

I can’t recommend iNaturalist enough. It’s free and you can tag experienced identifiers to help you in case you’re unsure of what you’re looking at.

PlantNet is a good one too, at least when I last used it years ago, I suppose it’ll only get better over the years.

or sell out to make a quick buck after building up a trusted name. could go either way.

Ask chatgpt!!
