Description

Trees in a Conservation Area - remove Rowan and Myrobalan PlumRowan; 8m (Please see accompanying photographs; Dunedin_210723-1 & 2)An early mature Rowan tree stands just over 1m from the boundary wall to its south. This tree is being suppressed by a larger Whitebeam adjacent to it. Since the trees are in such close proximity to each other, the Rowan risks being swamped by its neighbour in due course. There is virtually no crown development on the west & north west sides of the crown currently. There is only adequate space for one tree in this tight location and since the Whitebeam is the dominant and more spreading tree, it would be sensible to pre-empt the Rowan???s demise and remove it now to make room for its neighbour.Myrobalan Plum (Cherry Plum); 7m. (Please see accompanying photographs; Dunedin_210723-3, 4 & 5)This early mature, overgrown tree stands about 2m from the western boundary of the garden. It has been grafted onto alternative rootstock and its imbalanced crown is now leaning to the east by approximately 9??.As is common to the species this specimen is overdense, prone to excessive shooting at its unions and as a result produces a great deal of twiggy deadwood within its crown. Once over-stressed, the species is also susceptible to the presence of fruiting bodies, both within the crown and in proximity to the rootplate; the presence of which will ultimately weaken and overcome the tree once they have taken hold, leading to its rapid decline. Remove tree as a pre-emptive measure.
