yeh looks a bit spindley - looks a nice still day though

if you are a stickler - from now, you are best pruning all broadleaves (except a few exemptions like the walnut) after leaf fall. Its to do with trees energy depletion just as the leaves are falling. Shigo mentions it in one of his books - "the askanasi potential energy curve" please excuse any spelling mistakes, my spell check isn't working.

I wonder where the biggest metasequoia is in the country - I wonder how high they will eventually get over here.

had notice from a building co that a tree needs to felled pronto as it might fall. Well probably over exaggerated I thought. No it wasn't. a 70 ft willow bifurcated at 15 ft - included bark, and a split between the two was expanding and contracting in a fresh breeze. I had no kids then so I got up quick and section felled it. I remember my groundsman went all fingers and thumbs trying to put the 020 on my rope - NEVER AGAIN

misery - I remember pricing a job to remove the chippings so ive got my tipper transit and chipper. The gardener said " you can chip on this tarporlin" I thought great - after I had done that I was preparing to leave and he said "what about the chippings being removed?" he though it would be easier to chip on the tarporlin than straight on the back of the tranny lol - I was fuming at the time and told him what an idiot he was.I had to shovel it all up.

consider the influences on the English language as its developed over the centuries and how its evolved celtic, anglo saxon,viking, latin, French, all play a part The Adventure of English - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

looks like another branch is ready to go - I would sort it out before it does

while HCLM is easy to control with a foliar spray that is safe for bees,ladybirds and other beneficial insects. Important and beautiful veteran HCs are being felled unnecessarily because institutions like the Forrestry Commision are, I am sorry to say, giving out poor advice. but how do you spray mature horse chesnuts?
