Looks like a Hackberry ?????

Hackberry - I call them tree weeds

Edit:

Looks a lot like a hackberry except the leaves aren't serrated. Every hackberry pic I've come across show serrated leaf edges. That's why I ruled it out in the first place. I'm openminded though.

It sure looks like a Hackberry from the bark; but your right TXAg the leaves don't look like a hack.

Sugarberry, (celtis laevigata), most people call them hackberry. However, a true hackberry is celtis occidentalis, and has a range that begins around Oklahoma and east to the Carolinas and extends north to the Great Lakes.

Wish it was in my yard, looks a lot better than the tallow trees I have.

Thought it looked a little like a Bodark (sp) but wasn't sure.

Sugarberry is it. If you look, the leaves are smoother than the true hackberries.

Thanks!

Ha, no thanks I've been there and done that.

Good call Ryan.

So are the serrated leaves hackberry & the smooth leaves sugarberry; but the bark is the same on both?

Or are they the same tree w/ different leaf variations?

Most of the ones around here have this type of leaf, and these nodules always seem to be on them.
