Shagbark Hickory (1)
caryer ovale
Carya ovata
Hickories are prized native trees in the North American forest, and Shagbark is one of the best of the hickory genus for its appearance and form. Although it generally grows south of the US border, isolated stands of Shagbark Hickory have been found in places near Ottawa. This species has a straight trunk and shapely crown, and mature trees have the interesting bark feature that gives them their name. Shagbark Hickory can reach 25 metres in height. The tree is located about 70 metres SE of the intersection of two paths in the south, near a donor bench next to the pathway.
