Curently we have to rely on the ANSI standards ourselves as current international best practice.
So how do oz practitioners access ANSI standards, buy them? or rely on the ISA BMP's?

Thanks much for the Fakes link; I'll attribute this for the article: "The outcome of planting must be that the top of the root ball, or better, the root-crown, must be level with the finished level of the soil forever!"

eric that was a waste of time. If Graham is God's gift to gardening, I'd hate to see what the devil conjures up.

**Fearing which, any idea if this effort will get root crowns to grade? What is the level of training that the planters of all these 1.6 million trees?
