In geology, a valley or dale is a depression with predominant extent in one direction. A very deep river valley may be called a canyon or gorge.

The terms U-shaped and V-shaped are descriptive terms of geography to characterize the form of valleys. Most valleys belong to one of these two main types or a mixture of them, at least with respect of the cross section of the slopes or hillsides.

Name

A valley in its broadest geographic sense is also known as a dale. A valley through which a river runs may also be referred to as a vale. A small, secluded, and often wooded valley is known as a dell, or in Scotland as a glen. A wide, flat valley through which a river runs is known in Scotland as a strath. A small valley surrounded by mountains is known as a hollow. A deep, narrow valley is known as a coomb (also spelled combe or coombe). Similar geological structures, such as canyons, ravines, gorges, gullies, and kloofs, are not usually referred to as valleys.

What are those bulbous purple flowers on trees in the valley?
Q. If you live in the Valley you might have seen them. They are on thin, grayish trees. They have about five very purplish pink petals that make a bulb shape. They are blooming right now. It took half an hour of searching, but I answered my own question. It's called a saucer magnolia (sometimes called a tulip magnolia). I love them! They are gorgeous.

A. I know which one you're talking about. And I love those flowers which really stand out even from a distance because they are all flowers and almost no leaves. I hope that someone can give the answer so that I can go get one from Green Arrow or Home Depot.
