I wish he'd teach kids classes or lay down a curriculum. America badly needs to teach grade-schoolers, middle-schoolers, and highschoolers about nature and I only know armatures like me that would be laughed off by the school board for suggesting we take kids on nature walks and teach them plant identification and what watersheds and aquifers are.

That's a solid cuke! In SW NY and NW PA, I've noticed that when there's a lone remnant older tree in a historically logged (but not cleared) forest, it's often a cuke. It may be that thoughtful loggers in the 19th century, being mindful of the limited seed production and short dispersal range, were inclined to leave one here and there to ensure they'd regenerate. The wood was pretty popular for interior trim applications back then. The record height for the tallest accurately measured cucumber magnolia was recently updated to 153', down in the southern appalachians. They can still get quite tall in rich, sheltered forests pretty far north- a slim tree rising to 142' in Allegany State Park, NY, is the current northeastern height record. This species can grow remarkably swiftly- the northeastern record is in a stand less than 150 years old.

I was raised in an old house built in 1875, thirty miles south of Erie, PA. All the original interior trim was cucumber. The house was originally used to house the loggers, a lot of small bedrooms. Our barn was built about ten years after the house. One of it's upper beams is 8"x8" inch, eighty feet long without a break. Must have been a hell of a forest before it became farmland.

All loggers must follow this thinking. If we continue to allow the erosion of our educational practices then we become parasitic to the environment

I grew up not far from this area. All the old woodsmen cut cucumber trees for interior trim. It was a softer wood with a very fine grain. It warped very little, didn't shrink much, dried pretty hard, and took paint well. "Cucumber trim" was mentioned the same way "all copper plumbing" was - a sign the house was built by someone who did things right. Great tree and video!

My very initial guess was a tulip tree, especially given the tall straight trunk. But the fruits, or what was left of them told me it was in fact a magnolia! Love these videos! They bring back to me the passion I had in my younger years for knowing all the trees and wild plants! At 71 I don’t go out in the forest as much any more, but a video like this reminds me of how much I loved to do so once upon a time.

@celiauzarski2064 5 ай бұрын

I am right there with you, I am also in my 70's. I grew up in NE Ohio. For me trees and plants have always been intriguing. At first I thought it might be an old Elm because the bark. My second guess was that it looked like something in the magnolia family. Adam showing the seed pod cinched identification as cucumber. I love trees. The cutting of huge specimens literally brings me to tears. My neighbors cut down two magnificent oaks that had been alive for at least 100 years. A crane was brought in because( we live in a development where the house are set too closely to take down a tree that would have required three people to connect hands) around their base. All because the owner feared the trees might "fall" on the house. The house is over 60 years old, yet the only thing that fell were many bushel of leaves. Its good to know there are people like you and Adam.❣

You didn't mention why it's called "Cucumber" tree, (no doubt you know this) but the young, green flower fruiting bodies do look quite a bit like little gherkin pickle cucumbers!

It's not as stately or tall as this one, but it was massive with large, drooping branches. I measured it at over 60" dbh, but I didn't get a completely accurate measurement as my tape didn't reach all the way around (50") and it was rusted from a previous rain storm. It was on private property and it may be getting cut down depending on the project...I really hope it stays upright until it's reached it's lifespan!

I would have looked up first to see if it was deciduous or evergreen--I live in the PNW. (check) If it was deciduous the second thing I'd do was look at the dead leaves on the ground. (check) If it were around me I would guessed it's a black cottonwood. I would have never guessed magnolia.. I have never seen one that big and the PNW ones look.. different. Beautiful video--I love that you pointed out that 50 year old trees are very young--I consider most 50 year old evergreens a toddlers. The forest was most defiantly cleared. Almost all of them were cleared, in earnest, 200 to 150 years ago. I can't even find many trees over 200 years old in a national park full of trees that live to be thousands of years old. I know where patches of 700+ year old stands are but not many and they're not advertised (thankfully).

That is amazing. The leaf looked Magnolia to me AFTER the reveal, but with the seed pod, I immediately thought magnolia. But, that's too far north, I thought. I didn't think enough to realize that there are all types of any given species, so why not a northern magnolia. The soft bark made me think, cottonwood, but that's probably also southern and never so long living. But, since you suggested it would be a surprise, I held onto cottonwood, but the leaf and magnolia looking seed pod had me really confused. My identical twin brothers, especially one, are very much like you, being able to name trees so well. They were teens in the 60s, 70s, so much older than you.
