My father planted a few in our front lawn back in the '60s so I grew up watching them grow. They looked from a distance like very large apple trees- nothing like the stately forest American chestnut. They never seemed very healthy.

Keep up the good work. I'll let the more knowledgeable plant identifiers pass judgement on the chestnut, but keep up the email production. You're showing us a side of New Jersey that we would not otherwise see.

I announced it to the group and got no response. In part 1 of the series, I came upon a Chestnut tree and asked for help in identifying it. I would think that if anyone watched the videos, that the chestnut tree would have been brought up for discussion. But I guess not. Anyway, can any of you tell my looking at the leaves and bark whether a Chestnut is a Chinese or American? That's what I asked while I was filming.
