Blue Forest PEPPER TREE limb section perched on matrix Petrified Wood

Description

Pepper Tree  (Schinoxylon actinoporosum)
Laney Shale Member, Green River Formation, Eocene
Blue Forest, Wyoming
** We try to avoid using the word “cute” when describing petrified wood specimens, but this great piece won’t settle for anything less than “cute”!  It is a relatively small stick of pepper tree, measuring just around a half inch in diameter, but it is perched just perfectly on the original matrix of fossilized Colonia sp. Algae.  It is a super display piece – one that even the most uninformed novice would immediately recognize as fossil wood.  The wood itself has nice exterior wood grain character. This piece is not cut and polished -- it is perfect in its natural condition!  It measures approximately 2.75” x 2” in cross section with the perfectly round stick itself being 3/4 inch in diameter.  The overall length of the specimen is 4.5” with 2" of stick perched on of the matrix.
We specialize in petrified wood and plant fossils which are accurately identified as to locality of origin and family, genus or species. We don’t guess and when we don’t know, we say so! Your specimen will come with a label identifying the specimen, the locality where it was collected, the formation and age of the material and any other pertinent information we have gleaned from our literature search.
