I have cut down thousands of trees. Never planted one.
Actually there is a dead limb on one of our backyard trees that needs to be removed. I intend to do it myself with rope and a hacksaw. It’s about 25 feet up. I do not plan to wear any safety equipment.
A friend of mine in London got crabs. The hospital had to report any kind of v.d. By the time all the degrees of separation had been tracked down, most of West London had to be checked.
And the worst thing you can do to a tree is heap mulch up against it. The crowns of the roots should remain barely exposed. Mulch a “moat” around the tree wit about 1′ or so between the tree and the top of the moat “wall.”
Absolutely alliterative, Arkady.
Ladder & lopper, lech.

“The hole for planting a tree should be twice the size of the root ball.”
…are we still talking horticulture or is this still about the glory hole discussion?
Then lightly lay some prickly pine branches across the moat so dogs don’t pee in it.
