Surveyed a beautiful walnut today with big pocket of decay. Buttress roots are fine, decay is between the buttresses so was thinking maybe reduction to retain it. Then pulled some dead Ivy away and found Kretzschmaria on the side. Sounding test seemed good but not sure how aggressive the Kretzschmaria is going to be. Could recommend decay detection or just remove as it's close to buildings. Would be nice to keep it if possible Any thoughts appreciated!

Hi All, Came across these FFBs beneath a beech & sycamore yesterday, fruiting on the ground surface within about 1 - 2.5m of the stems. They look ganoderma 'ish to me but I've not come accross any gano sp. fruiting on the ground before. There were no FFBs on the stems and both trees appeared in good vitality; no symptoms of decline in the canopy that would suggest major root dysfunction. The fruiting bodies were perennial and about 100-150mm in size. Also noted what i believed to be symptoms of quite a significant girdling root on the beech, due to very pronounced flattening of the lower stem. I'm hoping the client will fork out for us to go in with an airspade and take a look. Any guidance on the fungus much appreciated. There are a few few photos! D

Hello, We had a tall silver maple fall on our car during a storm this September. We are now fighting with the city of London (Ontario, Canada) re. the trees condition. The tree was decayed inside, but we need some way to prove that the wind alone would not have been enough to snap a healthy tree of its size. Does anyone know of any density/ wind resistance formulas? Thanks!
