  8. Fungal disease and canker on sycamore

    in Fungi Pictures

    Posted

    I'd love to do a Picus Sonic Tomograph; I'm tipping the trunk base is compromised. I hate taking trees down unnecessarily but could you make the call to leave it if you lived there. A simple hammer [emoji375] test tells me something isn't right. Ok not a hollow sound but not the sound that intact wood makes.

  12. Couple win case against council on TPO tree

    in Trees and the Law

    Posted

    Wouldn't it be nice to read an article titled "62 year old council property demolished as it was causing problems to the residents of a 350 year old oak tree". Avian and insectivorous residents of Quercus robur complained of noise, litter, smoke from fires and late night parties! The house has since been removed in a victory for residents at Quercus [emoji1][emoji268]

  13. Honey Fungus. Advice on pruning wild cherry.

    in Tree health care

    Posted

    I've left the tree with honey fungus as I expected that advice. Subsequently found a slightly larger cherry, same site, with sulphur tuft growing at the base. Again the ID is correct. As I understand this fungi is saprophytic so will it a) affect the tree (theoretically no) and b) shall I prune (approximately 10-15% branch removal on a crown lift)?

  23. Sawdust on parked cars

    in General chat

    Posted

    Private company Woody. The car was parked 4 doors up from where job was. Car was in zone house wasn't therefore no leaflet. Had she parked outside house all would have been fine. Car now been professionally detailed with jokes on Facebook and kisses on wait while he gets the bill. Which helps my case no end I guess. All very disappointing really
