Today's #treeidtuesday comes to us from Tree Care

Today's #treeidtuesday comes to us from Tree Care Adviser Peter Girardi:⠀
Over the Thanksgiving holiday, I spent some time in the woods with my nephew looking at trees to help him study for his final dendrology exam at VA Tech. (GO HOKIES!) What he and I quickly realized is that he has been focusing on the leaves of the trees for identification. As you can imagine, when the leaves fall off it's a lot harder to identify. This week's Tree ID will only show hints and clues found on-site.⠀
This tree was found in a city median among a group of trees left from when the road was built so I am guessing it is native. This tree was about 40-feet tall and I am assuming it is not very mature yet. You may be able to detect other clues from the pictures. Can you identify this tree? If so, you could score some cool TT swag! Congrats to last week's winner Sally Wittkofski who correctly ID'd the Trifolate Orange!⠀
