report or not??

Shop 'em!, if your worried about come-backs, do it anonomously.

You all would be shocked at tree ignorance by many people in horticulture, especially in amenity horticulture and landscaping.

Most have not even heard of natural target pruning.

 

Trenching is a big problem in all aspects of construction. Trees are our livelyhood and most of us learn to respect them, we take time to learn about tree health.

Look in 50% of hoticultural books and they still advocate flush cutting and painting the ''wound'' with arborex!

Education on tree health has not reached many parts of the wider industy.

Maybe it is up to us, the local councils and trade associations to spread the word.

You damn skippy it is.

 

I would want to be informed of that kind of damage to protected trees. How else can we intervene? How else can we enforce the legislation?

 

We receive calls from contractors informing us about things like this all the time. Its always dealt with discretely and the trees benefit.
