    Hi,
    A couple of people have referred to this as a "Swamp Tree"

    I'm wondering what it's real name is?

    It is not disimilar in shape to a Koelreuteria.....is it one of those?

    Light brown lightly fissured bark with silver, almost white new branch growth.

    Difficult to get a shot of the tree as it is buried in amongst a bunch of evergreens.

    Thx
