I am doing some work in South Texas and found this tree in Crystal City, it is not available to cut down (too bad because it is covered with burls). Anyway, it is big for the area ( 2ft + in diameter) and I have not seen one like this before. The bark resembles willow and the tree shape is similiar to some willows but its "leaves" look more like pine needles although they alternate off the twigs like leaves instead of in bunches like pine needles. I took a twig and scanned it on the hotel scanner (file attached). Anyone know what this is?
