Now, I'll go google the thing, me will keep it quite if I find something...Dale

Re: And then there is Humpday Trivia......

I have two I think might fit. One is a very poisonous shrub for domestic cats that is called Mountain Mahogany today. It is good for deer though and hunters hunt for it when going after game in the winter. It is not a tree though. The other can be a b---- to locate except in the fall when its leaves turn the color between orange and green in the spectrum. The wood is not mahogany in color so it may be the bark or the wood texture that gives it the nickname.

Gossimer Wings

Ohhh...you flew so close to the answer that your wings melted! I said "close"...but not correct. ;-)

Post Humpday Hint

The mountains of "Mountain Mahogany" are the Appalachians.

Re: Birch........

is as close to my WAG as it gets, no google yet. Dang, what do you want the species of the birch genus? : ' > Thank for the reply.....Dale

Life's a birch!!

Now it wouldn't be a good trivia question if I gave that big of a "gimme" now would it? ;-)

Yes, a birch...but what kind? Think Appalachian....and think mahogany-like!!

Tommy

Re: Okay...you win........

Appalachian mahogany birch......Let some one else have it....I'm having to much fun, ; " >.......Dale

I Stumped the Panel? Answer

Quite rare for me to post a stumper. But since I will be "off the air" shortly I'd better go ahead and give the answer...

Dale get's partial credit for getting close...and for perserverance!

While yellow birch is more commonly used today, back in the Colonial days Sweet Birch was favored as a mahogany-like substitute because of its dark reddish brown color. As it was more commonly found in the Appalachians it was referred to as "Mountain Mahogany".

Good tries Dale!
