 Anne Frank Horse Chestnut Tree
The Ole Ganoderma Australae got it.
From reading the report it appears to be down to 28% holding wood on the buttresses only and decay rate is accelerating, the tree is losing the fight.
Obviously the concern is when will it fall, at current rates of decay they say by 2010 it's a goner. However what about wind forces etc between now and then?
The black and brown areas of the picus are good wood, the green is affected yet has some strength. The blue and pink are hopeless decayed areas. |
