    Le Grand Beech

    Nice work! Not familiar with “retrenching its crown”. Can you please explain? Also do you know the reason for the die back?

    Southeastern New England, sewn splicing?

    I think shipping alone will be more than a new rope! Sent an email to R&W Rope in R.I. Which is much closer to me. We’ll see what happens…

    Southeastern New England, sewn splicing?

    Turns out Shelter Tree only does new rope splices locally for $29. Used ropes need to be sent to KY at a cost of $100/eye! I’m looking elsewhere…

    Poplar Sapling snapped in half

    Poplars are notoriously unreliable trees. If you see any defect in the cambium it will surely turn into a risk. Rip it out and plant a more robust species.

    I know Shelter Tree in Attleboro also has an outfit they use for splicing. About $30 for a tight eye.

    Burr oak crack in trunk

    You might find that it’s not a crack but decay that is hidden behind a sheet of bark. Looks like there is a live edge to the left so I’d look for loose bark to the right. Not much you can do except evaluate if it is in danger of damaging anything if it fails. If so it’s gotta go.

    Lets see some shit... Shitty tree work picks from other companies in your area.

    In Italy on vacation with the wife walking around a well maintained park. All of the big trees have heading cuts. Some of these trees are very large and look like this is an annual thing. My only guess is it’s to maintain spacing between them. Maybe the rules are different here…
