Hi Neil, Yes, I would love to get year round phenological data on Liriodendron. That would allow us to present quite a profile for the species on the ENTS site. So, all of you ENTS from various states if you could reply with:
1. Is Liriodendron present in your state? If so, is it the entire state? 2. What is the status of Liriodendron foliage in your area? Leaves GREEN, % YELLOW, or OFF. 3. The smallest CBH (and height if possible) on which you find the capsules Thank you! Perhaps others would like to "adopt" other species and do a 1-2 year phenology study throughout the eastern U.S.?

For example, while on my walk to campus this morning I noticed the Lirio were 20-40% yellow. This is likely the result of our late-season drought. http://www.drought.unl.edu/DM/MONITOR.HTML Speaking of phenology, did you see this: http://www.nytimes.com/2008/09/16/science/earth/16moho.html - [I hope this isn't a re-post I missed]. neil --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ Eastern Native Tree Society http://www.nativetreesociety.org You are subscribed to the Google Groups "ENTSTrees" group.
