How many tree species do you have in your yard?

9. We have lived here 22 years

One of the first thing we did was put in the fruit trees. Oh, and a willow I forgot to mention, I like the look of them. We have a pin oak out front that is ancient..it takes three people to put their arms around the trunk. We planted the sugar maples, had one hundred saplings, many died a natural death, some were under the deck of the lawnmower before I saw them (my bad), I guess have about 30 of those left in what was an old pasture. In all we have just under 6 acres, plenty of room for trees and two big gardens. It would be daunting to start from scratch though. At least most of our trees were already on site when we moved in. We did thin out the locust for firewood.
