Tree Destruction

garden chainsaw tree arborist Someone call an arborist!

OK, finally, a GARDENING post! Had the arborist here to look at a couple of the cedars and the world’s largest weed cherry, and he gave me a bid of $2K to remove the cherry and grind out the stump. It’s a lot, but I’m not climbing that 75 foot, 3-trunked hydra to do battle. He also recommended removing the cedars damaged in the storm, but I’m going to have them cleaned up and lightened and see how that goes. Like most things in the yard, the previous owner never pruned them, and they’re doomed. Still, I hate to take them out until I have a good idea of how to replace them.

Nice to hear that a homeowner is not storing problems, but choosing an equipped tree service to prep for a fresh start.

Too many people keep trees that are best replaced.

If you need good tree ideas, try asking on a local garden forum tailored to the Pacific NW.

You may have read about that one.
