  1. Thank you Charles, i was thinking something along these lines as there are a row of Catalpas on Thornburrow Drive Penkhull, near to where I live.
  2. Im visiting site next week, so will post again if i am able to provide a positive ident (sophora interesting call),
  3. Any ideas (sorry poor photo from friend)?
  4. Noted at base of oak between buttresses.
  5. Thank you for your comments, will look to confirm with sample / lab test [emoji106]
  6. As anyone had any experience of the above where you could share comments about the equipment use when determining integrity of root plate / leaning tree?
  7. No evidence of fungal fruiting bodies and no dull sound when tested with hammer. However, crown was sparse / tree stressed.
  8. Interested to hear how this is / was compromised
  9. Brill my kind of tree freaks [emoji41][emoji106]
  10. Cheers , I was thinking it was more like what I know in common speak as an American timber poplar sp. Unfortunately there are four trees each about 25m in height over a public right of way and cycle track : they have recently started to shed 750cm diam limbs (not included unions) which i believe to be the start of natural retrenchment. The trees are not like the Manchester pop variety, which although not ideal can form a new head and managed as a "fake pollard". However, the pops you suggest might be true black dont seem to regenerate as well so considering removal and replacement planting. Any comments / ideas would be interesting to see.
  11. Is anyone suitably up to speed with pop ident to advise if this is a particular species rather than the usual "hybrid black" label ?
  12. Ok cheers that was one on my list of three, the other choices being:- ganoderma australe or innonotus dryadeus [emoji106]
  13. Noticed the attached recently on two sides of a field perimeter, ash and a young oak with the new shoots blackened. Considered frost damage as well but ash stems seem to have the scarring. Any comments?
  14. Hi can anyone advise me if the above is available for free for local authorities? Cheers Tim
  15. Can I get opinions please to support my own idea as to what I am 99% sure it is?
