    Default Tree ID / arborist?

    I'm wondering if anyone here might be able to tell me what kind of tree this is. I realize a photo of it with full leaves in July would be preferable but this is all I can offer at the moment (bark, leaves, tree) -

    Might email the Tree Farm in Longmont if you don't find out there. I've used them to price out trees from claims I've worked in the past.

    Elm, not sure what variety but it is identical to the one in my yard.

    I emailed The Tree Farm but have not heard back from them so I posted here figuring someone might be able to tell what it is. Apparently there's a sequel to the pine bark beetle, the "ash borer" so I'm just hoping this isn't an ash tree...

    I think (not 100% sure) it's an Ash. Doing a little googling, it looks like elm leaves have sawtooth edges and ash leaves, more or less, don't.

    Just going by what the guy who trimmed it a couple years ago said it was.

    And yes, the Ash Borers are on their way. Ashes are really nice trees but I planted maples instead, because of the threat from the borers. (Not that there's anything wrong with maples, I'd just like a little more variety.)

    That my friend is an Ash tree. Maybe a Marshall seedless ash. Or some other type of green ash.
