What is your favourite kind of tree? I like maples. We used to have tons of them on our property

but they all got old and most had to be cut down. But there is nothing more beautiful than the reddish/pink the leaves turn during fall. We used to drive to the cottage all fall through the Gatineau Hills in the fall.

I'd post a pic but I'm too lazy.
girl, Have you lost your mind?!
I love trees...my Least favorite is probably this one:

to narrow it down to just one tree...I love all of them
maples, pines, birch, weeping willows, dogwood...all of them.
(with the possible exception of the boxelder, which is a sort of bargain-basement maple). I am rather partial to the catalpa. They grow fast and get pretty big.
And they have pretty, tropical-looking flowers.
There's one in my front yard. I am quite fond of it.
I like maples, too. 
Live oaks are cool because they live centuries and they don't shed their leaves in the winter. They shed this time of year and bloom at the same time their new leaves are coming out. Most of the year they are a dark green. This time of year they are a yellow green, about the color of green olives.
Shumard oaks are really neat trees - they are deciduous so you get the beauty of the trunk and branch shape in the winter and the foliage in the summer. In the fall they have wonderful color. They have deep lobed leaves and produce a lot of acorns for the wildlife.
