Stouts &Winter makes a mention of pesticides and fasciation.
Yeah I think I've seen similar but these don't seem to fit. The thing about
these is they appear to all intents quite healthy. I suppose the compaction
from mowing and the like could almost be creating a sort of dwarfing root
stock
type scenario? Trouble is I don't know enough about herbicides, or dwarfing
root stocks come to that.
One of the dense crown sites had me looking for different varieties, but none
of the few listed in Cassells looked likely, while Van den Berk doesn't
really help either. I'd have thought that if Artichokes were rushing round
planting
Ash variations in the 60s we'd've heard of some, but beyond Westhof's Glorie
and Jaspida I've not heard of any, at least none that spring to mind.
