| Plant Morphology Observations: | Imm. fr. light brown; mature fr. dull brownish purple, yielding samaras only after being heat-dried. Bark gray, rough, with larger, longitudinal fissures crossed by narrower horizontal grooves, thus presenting a more or less checkered appearance. The single trunk forked at 5 ft.; limbs, quite crooked, were upward-reaching to descending. The elongate, finely pubescent, needle-like branchlets were dull gray-green, paler at the nodes; they were pendulous, making the tree strikingly picturesque; DBH ca. 10 in.; ca. 25 ft. tall, with closely similar spread. |
