TheWoWDBOnce again save yourself some time. The timber sample can't be harvested from just any tree.
The tree you have to harvest is (once again) just north of Stonefang Outpost. Hop on your flight path and get your timber sample.

Description
Incredible news, Commander {name}. Your ever-loyal servant (that's me) has managed to secure us timber lords. Now maybe you don't know what a timber lord is, so let explain: think of a blood-crazed, mass murderer who enjoys nothing more than killing. Now take that same enthusiasm for killing and apply it to killing trees! That's a timber lord. What this means is that we can now cut medium sized timber - but first we need to give these timber lords a test run. There's a suitable tree nearby. Good luck!
