Thread: what timber?

You are asking for a lot with that description and no photos

Straight away I assumed it was qld maple, but after researchon qld maple, it showed that I don’t know my trees very well.


Any idea what it may have been? Seen the tree in mt nebo,rain forest kind of area

G'day Lenz,

Try researching the genus 'Brachychiton' as they (mostly) have maple shaped leaves and are native to rainforest (wet and dry). Again, without a photo it is a bit of a lottery.
