What kind of tree is this?

[ballsie]

I have have been wondering what kind of tree this is for the last 5 years. I have 2 of them in my back yard. They do not flower or produce fruit.

Texas Persimmon?

I am going to guess yaupon

[elkbowhunter]

don't think its a Yaupon. Its hard to tell with my head cranked so far to the left.

Persimmon

Looks like a persimmon to me.

I thought it was a persimmon tree, but it doesnt grow any persimmons. I know next to nothing about trees. Would some produce persimmons while others do not? I have 2 of them and neither of them produce anythng other than leaves.

Male persimmon trees do not produce, but this would be the first slick barked persimmon tree I have ever seen.

Crepe Myrtle?

Holly?

That tree looks like the 2 trees right at the dough nut in new port.
Smooth bark

Looks like a crepe to me

Def not crapemyrtle or persimmon. Persimmon have much darker, rougher bark.

[Bill's Unlimited]

kind of looks like the yaupon tree in my back yard where I hang a deer feeder and bird feeder...

Does it get red berries? Only the female yaupon get them so it may be a male (mine is).

I'm thinking male Texas persimmon.

Can you post a better picture of the leaves?
