The new tree definitely cannot have a big root system that spreads wide as there are piping below.Stephaniehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05867061279916535777noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1055656544285175590.post-81027854319097819042009-08-25T07:42:17.400+08:002009-08-25T07:42:17.400+08:00Thinking the positive side, lucky that it's no...Thinking the positive side, lucky that it's not a tree planted in your garden, else you will have to do all the work instead of the city council :)Sandy on Cloud 9http://www.gardeningoncloud9.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1055656544285175590.post-92135178037827626282009-08-24T22:36:43.126+08:002009-08-24T22:36:43.126+08:00Steph,

But for now, I am not optimistic.<br /><br />Autumn Belle, if no new leaves come out or the last few green leaves dry up, I definitely need to call the city council to come back to chop the tree. <br /><br />Lynn, yes, I really hope the city council will plant a new plant for me. Hopefully a flower tree :-)<br /><br />Prospero, this is a Wild Cinnamon tree... should be Cinnamomum iners.

If you do, then it is ok. If no shoots and the trunk is starting to dry up and decay, maybe you can say goodbye to it and plant a new one. Perhaps a mango fruit tree? Will attract birds and bats. Luckily the tree is outside your house compound, otherwise, the city council won't do the job.Autumn Bellehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00818422090556602092noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1055656544285175590.post-59746722360150090392009-08-23T16:31:29.867+08:002009-08-23T16:31:29.867+08:00I can't recall ever to have seen a tree hit by...I can't recall ever to have seen a tree hit by the lightening...
