Sausages don't grow on trees. They're a root crop.

In an old textbook I came across by chance (long story), it mentions sausage tree and umbrella tree. I hadn't heard of them before but I thought of this list!! ;-)

Thanks! Never heard of sneezewood, actually, but it's on the list now. :-)

Mighty list!!! I was browsing the dictionary today and found 'sneezewood'. Thought you could add it (I think...).

Druidy-druid? It's been ten hours and nobody's questioned that?

Glad to hear that. You can thank mollusque for most of the more exotic types. :-)

Some of these tree names are very pretty. Others less so. My druidy-druid ancestors would approve of this list.

Thanks, mollusque--you're really classing up the joint! :-)

Added both, thanks! Mollusque, since you expressed interest in "stealing" this list, I've added you as a contributor. Have at it! Looking forward to seeing how it turns out, since this started as a sort of catch-all for tree words from other lists. :-)
