What tree/pant does this leaf belong too?

My mom found this leaf in the yard. And not sure what it belongs too.

Any help would be great Thanks,

 

looks almost like it could be a ninebark leaf but its hard to tell from the tiny picture.

 

did ya click on pic to enlarge? looks big on mine when i click on pic.

Thanks for reply.anyone certain what it is?

 

Where is "east, usa"? How close to a natural area with native plants does your mother live or is it strictly an urbanized area?

 

Just a wild guess,maybe Sassafrass?

I'm sure it is not Sassafras. Sassafras has lobed but not serrated margins. It may not even be from a tree. Need to find more leaves like it, and photograph a branch with several leaves on it.

 

I'am in Ohio..We live in the country and we have few different kinds of tree's on the property but none with that leaf..And my mom knows quite a bit about flowers/tree's ect...to our north and west is woods..

No,Dont think so...

 

It also looks like some kind of oak to me.

 

Malus toringo? http://www.s-weeds.net/familjer/rosales/rosaceae/toringo.html

 

Possibly a Hawthorn (Crataegus) of some sort, but hard to tell without an indication of scale. How large is the leaf? Crataegus leaves are typically 3-5cm long.

 

2 1/4 inches including stem.

 

The one leaf is close, but not sure..

 

Looks like a crab to me as well.

 

Crab?!?

 

I think he means a Crabapple tree like pedalada posted above. That was funny.

 

Pin oak?

 

? Never seen one befor..

 

I think I would go with the crabapple too.I KNOW it ain't a pin oak .
