Hello, just signed up tonight! Very keen on trees and the work that goes with them, done a bit of climbing but still plenty to learn, i live in Scotland so plenty of nice trees around! I wil try and send some pictures in, not much use with a computer but im sure i will get there! Any chance of a crash course on the photo thing! thanks Jonny

There's a sticky thread in announcements on posting pics and files etc ... and I think you Scotts have brought us some much needed rain.

It has just stopped raining here in Brisbane ... 36 hours straight of good rain, got 60mm in the guage. Rain tank overflowing and pool is full.

Hello EKKA and other readers,

My main interest in Tree World is learning more about mulch. I created a website for my friend who owns a large recycling operation in Norther New Jersey. His company, Caputo Recycling, creates thousands of yards of mulch from the disposals from hundreds of tree and landscape companies.

I'll probably check in monthly to catch up on some of the forums. If anyone shares my interest in mulch, you might want to check out a convienient mulch calculator that the programmers at my "real job" helped me develope.

Plug CAPUTO RECYCLING into Google and click on the FEELING LUCKY button.

Eric, your site puts mine to shame! where do you get the time?

Hi guys

Monkey and Joshywashy ... and others I suppose.

Hi Ekka, You asked what that snakey tree is in my atavar. I've been waiting for someone to ask about that. Those are populus tremuloides or our most common native tree (the trembling aspen or poplar). These though are interesting, they don't know about gravity and normally grow straight as an arrow. The local info states that cattle would not graze near these trees and that the ground may be radioactive or that aliens had landed there and pissed on the ground. Who knows, but it's probably genetic, apparently the university of saskatchewan took some cuttings and they did not retain the upside down caracteristics. I would like to try myself.

Ekka · 12th June 2007, 01:19 PM

Pretty unusual, if you can manage to grab some pics of some mature ones from a distance so we can see what their caper is.

They'd make some interesting tree for kids cubby houses then .

boreality · 12th June 2007, 05:34 PM

I'm going to try to post a photo for the first time so. If I do this is another photo of Saskatchewan's famous twisted trees.

Sean Freeman · 13th June 2007, 02:11 AM

Cool pic

, and any suggestions for the cause of that twisted growth?
