Not sure what you are requiring but may be able to help. www.iros-uk.com

Partial refusal partial approval of tpo - where do I stand?
Derek Eames replied to Hornbeamfella's topic in Trees and the Law
Why fell? Trees add value and amenity. I would suggest planting some more... at least that is what I would do... -
Look good. What is the DBH? (Diameter at 1.3m)
-
I think you may have it! The detail fits well with a female. Should have known that one! Thank you very much!
-
Sure. See below.
-
Can anyone shed some light on this one? I had thought Oriental Beech but crown is very dense and compact. Bark is heavily fissured. DBH 480mm and height 7.7m Confess I am baffled...!!!
-
Does seem to have suckers sprouting at base which is characteristic of Caucasian Wingnut or rather Pterocarya fraxinifolia. Rare tree...!
-
Great query.. Looks remarkably like a Nothofagus mennziesii... or Silver Beech Rather rare though
-
Any ideas on this one?
Derek Eames replied to Thesnarlingbadger's topic in Tree Identification pictures
I may suggest a Magnolia salicifolia as a possibility but subject to correction..! PS does it have a lemony scent? Ah... or a Cornus capitata perhaps...?!? -
I think I would be more concerned about potential windthrow as there would be a weak root/soil relationship. I think I would consider removal and replanting but ensuring correct planting and establishing procedures. In particular, keep the nursery mark just above the soil surface, check soil type and pH and identify suitable species for best long term results.

Brilliant! Absolutely spot on! Send me your address and I will post a bottle of Ale
-
A good try... Tricky one to say the least Here is a clue... Order is Sapindales
-
Does it smell of turps?!? if so diagnosis is probably correct! Not good for such a large tree... But crown looks healthy which is good.
-
Pinus sylvestris for example requires root growth some twice crown diameter. If restricted to small pot this is not going to work I think.
-
I came across this tree today. A pint of Old Crafty Hen for anyone who can identify the correct genus and species..!!!
-
OK Thanks for that. I have worked in many major Beech Trees including some magnificent veterans but not seen a fluted base. MT
-
Fern Leaf Beech looks exactly right. Fagus syvatica "Aspleniifolia" to be precise. Great example.
-
Sorry... I have never seen a Beech with a stem base like that. I would stick to Hornbeam which is correct for the base, bark colour and leaf
-
Bright Orange Fungus on an acient apple tree
Derek Eames replied to carolebarr's topic in Fungi Pictures
Great example. Commonly called "Chicken of the woods". Rather like chicken and used for "veggie" meat. But beware of allergy... -
OK... Fluted bole, bark pattern and leaf shape would suggest Hornbeam. Often found in groves. Great trees.
-
Very interesting. More photos needed but maybe a species of Juglans but agree the leaf looks like Beech although the stem base in unusual.
-
Cherry Tree Bark Split. very little blossom
Derek Eames replied to RobertG99's topic in Fungi Pictures
Could be bacterial canker i.e. Pseudomonas syringae pv. morsprunorum -
Would suggest Cupressus sempervirons as a good option
-
Looks a little like Kretzshmaria deusta. Can affect Prunus spp. Bit indefinite without a physical look.
-
Thanks all. Its not my tree (thankfully). Its actually local council (it even has a tree tag). The prevailing wind is directly across it so pressure on stem and roots must be enormous. A good example for Claus Mattheck...
