    Maple twig borer?

    Checking my resources we have documentation of twig pruners, Anelaphus sp., with similar damage and larvae stage.

    Cabling this Birch tree

    I’m more concerned that it’s actively failing and would lean toward full removal of that stem.

    Beech Leaf Disease

    Interesting. Not sure then if it’s not from second flush or treatment. It’s possible id imagine disease severity can ebb and flow depending on the trees reserves and ability to fend off disease pressure. Maybe there is a factor environmentally that effects viability of nematodes like last years...

    Beech Leaf Disease

    Did you check for injection sites? Or was treated with the foliar option?

    Eminectin benzoate rates

    5mL upped to 10mL for trees over 35”. Dino has a super short residual so definitely get them off that program, not appropriate for EAB. I would only recommend the bark treatment if injections are on the late side for quicker protection until the EB moves up into the tree.

    Beech Leaf Disease

    I wonder if the ebb and flow some are noticing is related to beech aborting severely affected leaves and putting out the second flush which is fairly common in the advanced stage. And I wonder further if that second flush temporarily decreases the nematode populations as a result.

    working through poor air quality

    When it was bad in the NE from the Canada fires we either had shortened days or shut the offices for production all together. One of the days I was with a trainee and the sky was orange and hazy. Pretty incredible it travels so far, but clients were appalled we were working in it. It may not...

    Possibly the biggest English Walnut tree ever

    That makes a ton of sense!

    Possibly the biggest English Walnut tree ever

    That’s incredible. Would have loved to see how they did a graft at 40’! That would be a sizable Scion to rootstock I would imagine.

    anyone start a tree service in foreign country ?

    The tree care in Spain is both fascinating and bizarre. Lots of weird pollarding and grafting trees to other trees and even themselves.

    Bamboo Management

    Yeah this is why I’m thinking it will likely not work. Or perhaps it doesn’t work “as well” to gain the desired outcome?

    Bamboo Management

    I have a bottle of sight line (triclypor) and Clearcast (imazamox). My herbicide knowledge is really not up to snuff despite doing a lot of invasive management for a few years (mostly cut stump with glyphosate formulations). Will either of these be decent post emergent treatments, with some...

    Fruit Inhibitors

    I’m laughing because I didn’t even realize I was responding to one of my own threads before. I learned that Florel is tricky due to the fact not only is it done at time of flowering, but flowers obviously open at varying times requiring multiple well timed treatments and you must make the...

    Beech Leaf Disease

    We don’t do it and don’t see the need. The bleeding from injection sites we often see is more bacterial or more along the lines of bleeding similar to pruning certain species in the spring. I’m pretty sure we have sampled the bleeding and confirmed it’s not Phytophthora. I prefer to, and train...

    Fruit Inhibitors

    Paclo will definitely have the potential to cause more flowering which means more seed.

    Beech Leaf Disease

    It’s a very good option! I will reiterate timing. Get them done before late July.

    I like big butt(ress) and I cannot lie

    A few interesting ones from over the years. These old weeping cherries always have very interesting root flares. Two of these in my new neighborhood and very incredible trees. Would love to figure out the cultivar. They don’t seem to be grafted? Camperdown Elm at Smith College Weird...

    Large, uprooted doug-fir laying into another doug-fir... thoughts?

    GRCS from the standing tree? Maybe lift the other enough to remove that pressure and then start to dismantle.

    Large, uprooted doug-fir laying into another doug-fir... thoughts?

    Crane as a tie in? Or at least support the leaning tree once final point of contact is cut?

    USDA update

    Once again the party of free speech really holds to those morals.
