Ep.204 Protecting trees during development - Gary Moran (Treeside Arboricultural Consultancy)
Manage episode 423845284 series 2804673
How can we protect trees during development? In this episode, consulting arborist Gary Moran and I explore his usual recommendations for clients wishing to protect their trees during development, whether that's for a private, commercial, or public project.
Trees might take a long time to show stress, so just because it looks great when construction finishes, that doesn't mean the tree hasn't been damaged beyond repair. It may take anywhere from a few weeks to a decade or longer for a tree to show signs of stress due to root damage, soil disturbances and compaction, and other common causes of compaction during development.
By the end of this episode, you'll have practical advice on avoiding soil compaction when there are heavy machines present, protecting tree trunks from mechanical damage, building around root zones, and much more.
