    Can anyone ID this one?

    Branches spread about 4 feet, the bud things are now about 1.5 to two inches long. Located in Zone 5A (NE New Brunswick). Sorry about the fuzzy pic...

    Might be an Aesculus.

    A little "buckeye" perhaps? That would be something :-)

    here's a couple of better pics...

    OK, I guess its not a buckeye... it's got leaves and flower buds now!

    Sorbus. Now we see why it wasn't quite right for an Aesculus.
