Quite right, I should have mentioned that, my bad ... luckily, you still have a lovely photo of your tree. I saw my first Smoke Tree in Branson, Mo. See you later.
Hi lainsc, I have removed your first photo for you because human faces are not allowed in photos as per the FAQ, https://www.projectnoah.org/faq
Striking-looking tree! But once you've heard the name, you think ... why, yes, that's exactly what it looks like. The photo that accompanies the Wikipedia link doesn't look much like your photo, but if you enter the name into Google, you can find a lot of trees that look just like yours. Looks like nurseries carry them quite a bit.
