Very vigorous. Has canopy problems, but nice <br /> limbs lower down. Some trunk decay. <br /> Inder1FlnpCauses- The health of the tree has been degraded due to past pruning methods.e.g.flush cuts, <br /> imbalanced pruning including tip overloading, large mature limb removals, and tension wood <br /> scarring. Sidewalk repairs may have contributed to root injury and decay. Without root crown <br /> excavation and examination, we cannot determine the extent of damage and /or decay. <br /> - Could be reduced far back. To improve the tree's health, nutrient health improvement <br /> itehmoco <br /> . measures for the roots of the tree Is recommended. Cabling, crown reduction, shaping and <br /> balancing and correctional pruning techniques are strongly recommended as soon as possible. <br /> Monitor closely. <br /> ti' Our recommendation for Minimum Invasive Hazard Treatments are 1) Cabling - -- This means <br /> Moue Waft structural) securing limbs, trunks, or scaffolds to other tree members for the purpose of <br /> learltraonet Y n9 PurP <br /> stabilizing, holding together, and decreasing the potential for structural failure of the tree. <br /> On this project, we suggest the use of Cobra system cabling, (the most installed cabling <br /> system in Europe), because it is adjustable over time and can be reused. 2) Balancing do <br /> Shaping, 3) Crown Reduction, and 4) Corrective Pruning.
