    Maybe no trees near it now because they have fallen! Looks like an old wound. Get someone who knows what they are doing to assess it. You could ask to be present and thereby learn from their methods.

    Looks a bit like black fruit bodies of Ustulina (K.deusta) in the second picture. Are they crispy like cinders? If so, get it felled.
  3. Arctostaphylos uva-ursi
    I would probably start with a nylon faced mallet. Do you know how to use one?
  4. Arctostaphylos uva-ursi
    Cause? Well it might have been caused by another tree falling against it. How far the decay goes? That's a piece of string question! Looks more rotten toward the top of the wound. You could take a core here and check it out (probably the cheapest method) or you could use decay detection such as a microdrill or picus. Hope that helps.

    It is normal. Just confirms its lilac. If it gets too big you can cut it right back and it will come again.
  6. Arctostaphylos uva-ursi
    Agree with lilac. A shrub really. Not going to get huge. Do the flowers turn brown and persist on the shrub for some time making it look a bit shabby?

    Not so lucky [ame]https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9pf1uR5CroY[/ame] An undercut might have helped here

    I believe your NPTC certificates would be accepted in Europe but it would be worth getting in touch with Billy Robb at A1 Arborists, as he is the driving force behind the European Qualifications. He is also an NPTC assessor.

    That is blatant vandalism! Is this in the interest of research?
  11. Arctostaphylos uva-ursi
    Inclined to agree with this. Looks like a great system on deep mineral soils but I can see it being extremely frustrating elsewhere.

    Looking for Bernhard Mathews?
  13. Arctostaphylos uva-ursi
    Paul I would be interested in both elements. Some idea of the content and costs would be useful. Thanks

    Swann egg would be my guess (see picture below). Could be a Rhea egg but definitely too small and not round enough for an ostrich.
  15. Arctostaphylos uva-ursi
    Hmmm. Well the extra pictures don't really help a great deal but I would probably plump for field maple. That's a best guess and not a definitive ID. Best of luck with it.
  16. Arctostaphylos uva-ursi
    At a guess, I would say maple. Any more pictures? Perhaps some of the tree it came from and preferably some in focus would help.

    I can only begin to imagine the pain you are in. I hope you are able to stay positive and have the support you need at home. Get well soon.

    Hmm sorry to hear of his loss I hope he was insured. I wonder how one would go about combating this kind of theft. Seeing as they are so valuable - could you not microchip them?
  19. Arctostaphylos uva-ursi
    Oh dear. Someone has their foot caught in your rope!
  20. Arctostaphylos uva-ursi
    Sounds like you are on the right track to me.
  21. Arctostaphylos uva-ursi
    Where is the lumber?
  22. Arctostaphylos uva-ursi
    Does not seem unreasonable. Does it really?
  23. Arctostaphylos uva-ursi
    I assume the concrete is the problem. Could you bolt a square post to the concrete and extend the post and rail to it? A photo might help?
  24. Arctostaphylos uva-ursi
    Looks more like mammal damage than strip canker.
  25. Arctostaphylos uva-ursi
    It looks pretty exposed. I would probably advocate felling it.
