When you have the "thirst" there is no going back

Au contraire my friend, I'm living proof there is

Good post cheers,

 

I like the idea of (I think u call it Halo pruning) reducing the turkey oaks on the south side (I take that’s the back of the lean side) of the sessile oak. Is this to encourage more growth on the other side to regain balance of the tree and also to improve recovery after pruning?

 

Keep them coming, as this is an area in the future I would really like to get into.

 

Cheers Steve

Steve the Sessile already has room on the tension/north side away from the lean.

The Haloing of the Turkeys is on the southside to enable sufficient light to be accessable to the fracture reduced branches.

cerris are hybridising, possibly with both robur and petrea.

 

could = SuperQuerc !

Well as Q. robur and Q. petrea already hybridise to a depressing array of intermediate forms aggregated under Q. x rosacea and Q. cerris already gives us a similarly variable Q. x hispanica when crossed with Q. suber. I'd guess its inevitable!!!

 

That's another one for the taxonomists to play with!
