Cherokee Brave Dogwood - wilting leave - overwatering?
dumper replied to RMORAN's question in Homeowners Tree Advice Forum
Not sure that’s overwatered looks more wilted, leaves are sparse fungal or bacterial infection?, maybe too much fertiliser -
16 tonne machine lifts bugger all 2.5 tonnes maybe
-
Underneath I wouldn’t use compost just good screened soil not recycled garden waste, maybe with some sharp sand, an irrigation system halfway down the rootball and on the surface with a couple of good concrete railway sleepers either side to guy down to or a duckbill system, try not to guy above ground, a seriously good watering before and during moving, flood the rootball for a good few hours maybe drill some hole to get water into the root ball
-
Just how do you intend to move it? 16 tonne digger seems small, little traction to push or pull very little lifting ability, do you intend to wrap the rootball?
-
At a guess rootball and tree to give a chance of survival are going to be 10 plus tonnes,you don’t get a lot of soil in a tonne with no preparation the rootball will need to be huge
-
Forget the tree spade this is a Newman frame or box job yes it’s possible, but is it worth it, i would suggest 10 to 15 k to move well, and don’t forget the tidy up after. Nice idea but non starter
-
Yep 40k and it won’t do any more than the one in your yard that’s paid for, plus it’s full of electrics,adblue,and shit plastic better stick with what you have

Road plantings laid well to falls then rolled with the heaviest ride on vibrating roller until your backside is numb then another couple of hours

Are my white pines too far gone?
dumper replied to wsly_odom's question in Homeowners Tree Advice Forum
I would suggest too well cared for they really responded to the attention you gave them by growing well, However they had little chance as soon as you left them on there own, with out a well established root system they had little chance in the heat/ dry temperatures, too much water makes then soft I think they are to far gone to recover and make a good tree, my advice would be to start again, perhaps use a pipe and place it as a ring about a quarter way up the roots then water into the pipe this will encourage the roots to grow down increasing the chance of survival if left for a while -
Recently planted 7-8' Green Giants
dumper replied to Chigala's question in Homeowners Tree Advice Forum
Being I’m a few thousand miles away my advice would be to up your watering two or three really good soaks each week, maybe a little feed and wait and see these have been taken out of a nice comfortable nursery and put in your hot dry windy yard,give them time and water. -
