When I was between high school and college I had a job on a forestry research crew in British Columbia. As such, I learned to identify the commercial species of trees in that part of the world. I learned that you can't just look at the leaves, or the cones, or the bark, or the form. You have to take all those things together, and more.

Give us a picture of the rest of the plant. That would help a lot.?ÿ ?ÿ?ÿ

@noodles

Very nice, but since it is clearly not a commercial species of tree native to British Columbia,?ÿ I can't help you. But it should help others.?ÿ

Maybe this: Pot Marigold
