Pollards, the forgotten art-discussion
sean replied to Tony Croft aka hamadryad's topic in General chat
Its what we need....more and more pollards!! Especially in locations where there are veteran pollards so they become heir apparents. -
Came across this huge London Plane in Ware priory, Herts. Photo's do not do it justice but its root system in the river looked amazing. Colonised by Perenniporia Fraxinea.

Came across this fine example in a verge yesterday. Powdery mildew of oak is caused by the fungus Erysiphe alphitoides (also known as Microsphaera alphitoides) and it is a common foliar pathogen of oak throughout Europe. First found in England in 1908, it was considered a contributory factor in the oak dieback episode the 1920s. Erysiphe attacks young leaves and soft shoots, covering them with a felty-white mycelium, causing them to shrivel and blacken. Mild overcast conditions are optimal for development of the disease, which usually appears in summer when warmer conditions prevail. (Forestry Commission)

Had it on an Ash in Richmond Park a couple of years ago......photo's on here somewhere....will have a trawl.

Great habitat in that tree. Pollard and reduce larger limbs with extensive cavities? Although without seeing the tree first hand prognosis is problematic

A useless Groundie.

I'd reduce down to fork and leave as habitat,

So so sorry to hear of your tragic loss......I hope your Grand daughter makes a full recovery and your daughter will shine and live on through her children. Stay strong but remember its ok to have bad days and let it all out.
