This table contains thumbnail images and information about some common trees of the southeastern United States.  The list originated from the combined tree lists of Radnor Lake State Natural Area and Warner Parks in Nashville, and the Great Smoky Mountains National Park.   Other species known to be present in the southeastern U.S. were added.   This list contains primarily native trees, although some other species that are naturalized or that are commonly planted are included.  Where synonyms of scientific names occur, the nomenclature of the USDA Plants Database is followed.  

The numbers in the "Start Bloom" and "Stop Bloom" represent the beginning and ending dates of the blooming period for angiosperm species.  Decimal numbers represent observations made by Steve Baskauf in the Nashville, Tennessee, USA area, primarily during 2006 (with a few observations from earlier years).  The first digit of the blooming date represents the month and the digit after the decimal represents the week within the month.  Numbers with no decimal give only the month as listed in the literature (e.g. Gleason and Cronquist, Manual of Vascular Plants) and do not specifically represent the blooming date in middle Tennessee.
