    I've been admiring a tree and I had the chance to ask the owner for the name of it today. He said it's a ribenna tree but my spelling is clearly totally wrong because I can't find any information on it. Can anyone tell me how it should be spelt please?

    ohhhh let me think...but go back and ask for the botanical name, many just have petnames for some plants.
    But somehow rings a bell , or similar.

    Robinia pseudoacacia

    That might be in. Green leaves but a beatiful shimmer in the sun.
