Please ID the following trees or shrubs in the pictures for me. THANKS.

I have seen a lot of this kind of tree (picture A) in my neighborhood. The leaves are about a female palm size.

Detail of picture A

What are theses grape vine looking plants?

I am trying to learn to distinguish different types of oak. It is hard just to go by rounded or pointed lobes. I can tell only if it is a pin oak, for its very pointed lobes like a holly's. Is this a white oak or scarlet?

Are these poison oaks?

Thanks bunch

A - Maybe basswood???
B - Don't know ID but it is prominent here, too
C - I think I see bristles on the leaf edges so some kind of red oak. Definitive ID is impossible at this point in time. Give it a year or 10.
D - Poison Ivy

I am gonna guess at the oak. It looks like the leaves on my Durand oak seedling.Oak leaves on seedlings can be hard to get right sometimes though. The white oaks that are usually smooth edged can appear to be sharp toothed on babies. The others I won't even try. Well B looks like wild grape but I don't see a vine with the leaves.

I don't know if that is Basswood or not, but we do have Basswood in the metro Atlanta area.

Yes, that looks like muscadine grape vine.

I'd guess the oak is Quercus falcata, Southern red oak. Very common around here. It helps to look around for the momma. Acorns should be dropping now too.

And yes, that looks like it could be poison ivy.

A = Paulownia tomentosa
B = Vitis sp. (wild grape) - likely V. rotundifolia
C = looks like Laurel oak (Q. laurifolia)
D = Poison ivy

Where is that tomontosa? Looks like it is a natural area. Interesting. It is not native to GA.

Yeah, I was hoping that would not be Paulownia ... but at the infection rate these days, it certainly could be. Again, look around for the Momma and seed pods on other trees.
