Why did they plant so many poplars as city trees in St. Petersburg?
Was it just to get something up fast after the war ( I don't imagine there were many trees left after the siege?)

 

[Maximalist]

Poplars almost 100% survival rate after planting in urban areas ..

 

[stig]

So does linden. Or are you too far north for those?
They are way easier to maintain.

 

[Maximalist]

Lindens and maples in St. Petersburg planted in parks and squares -

Y'all don't like to leave much meat on the bone over there. When you guys say trim, you sure mean it. When you guys tell the barber you want a trim, does that mean right down to the skull?

 

[Tucker943]

Truthfully I only joke. Cultures vary. It would be asinine to think that tree care is a universal approach. I wonder what they do in Africa?

White oak

Another large tree with amazing drop zone. 8 hours total climbing, 3 loads of wood, 2 loads chip. 2 days. Thank you for SRT!

 

[cory]

Nice looking job, nice pics, nice stump. Did you have 2 srt lines in the 4th pic to give you good balance etc?

 

[mistahbenn]

No that was the rigging line Cory.

 

[cory]

Oh ok, thanks. What exactly about the srt made that removal easier, just trying to learn, here.

 

[mistahbenn]

No upper body exertion when ascending, no friction when line touches a branch above you, ability to redirect, it's just so beneficial!!

 

[flushcut]

It was a nice tree!

 

[treebilly]

Looks like it was a fun one. Nice job Benn

White oak. Sancho really could careless, he just works day after day with no back pain.

[cory]

Lol Sancho!

Yet again, Benn kills big oaks in tight spaces in a quick fashion with no damage. I hereby name him, Benn the Tree Surgeon.

 

[flushcut]

Shouldn't that read Sir. Benn the Tree Surgeon.

 

[mistahbenn]

Hahaha. ANYONE who cuts trees in the UK calls themselves a tree surgeon. So what is a tree surgeon?

 

[cory]

Yup. Sir Benn.

First Elvis, now Sir Benn. Wut up with these Brits??

 

[flushcut]

So what is a tree surgeon?

A person highly skilled with a chainsaw.

 

[mistahbenn]
