American Hophornbeam Tree Fruit

Makes wonderful firewood. Have a nice stand of ironwood and I cut some selectively every few years. It's in a small valley that is very dense so the trees grow very straight and tall.

I discovered have a few of these in our yard. Unfortunately, I had a small one next to my driveway I had to cut down this week. I noticed how the flowers look like hops flowers and found too they're called a hophornbeam. They are really neat looking. I don't think I can brew beer with it.
