Terry on Aug 12, 2013Looks like a flowering locust or some type of elm. The leaf clusters look more like elm, but they don't have typical elm ridges.Helpful Reply

Drought Smart Plants on Aug 13, 2013It's probably some species of Fraxinus, which is Ash. Sorry, not up on anything more helpful as in species or variety, there are just so many. Although, now that I look at it again, that almost looks like Sambucus flower stalks with a berry on it, which is Elderberry. Hm. Sorry.Helpful Reply

Catherine Smith on Aug 13, 2013Contact your local extension office. The agent should be able to identify the tree for you. You may need to take in some pictures and some leaf samples, but they have great resources and experts on tap.Helpful Reply
