This is my first post here so please excuse any mistakes. This tree is growing in my back yard and I have yet to be able to ID it. It's trunk is 8-10 in diameter and about 70+ feet tall. It's native to Texas. It's about 100 miles east of Dallas. I have yet to see any fruit/flowers on it, but I have have missed them. I have attached some photos of the trunk and leaves. Any help would be appreciated. Regards, Gary
