Not sure what the comment: “Sometimes it can be just a matter of pruning
some branches back” relates to though?
Saw several examples of trees apparently keeling over due to weakened wet
soils this summer(?) Particularly a row of pollarded Pops, which IMO were
overdue for repeat pollarding. The lot were removed but I suspect they could
have
been pollarded and left to grow on again; just a matter of pruning branches
back?
The floods were interesting (well I found it interesting) for illustrations
of soil shear-strength being reduced by waterlogging, sometimes where you'd
least expect it.
