Re: OH State Champ N Red Oak
We had 6-8 people clustered around the tomograph image, guessing how many trunks fused to make this trunk; 1, 3, 5? I did not mean to open that can of fusion worms; I only want to manage hollow trees without someone with a drill and a formula saying it's gotta go. If OH says it's a champ, I lack the...

Re: US Champ White Oak--an arborist's view
Larry, it was last measured by a Va Tech student, 90' tall and 120' spread, per the AF listing. Suspiciously round numbers perhaps, to the dendromorphometrically minded. When I mentioned confirming stats with a tape drop etc., I heard some consternation, and concern that I was just out to reveal err...

Quercetum near Petersburg
Shouting out for a gifted tree man, Guy Sternberg. he manages Starhill Forest, a Quercetum with a fantastic collection of 80ish acres, but ENTS may want to connect mainly for his knowledge of notable nearby trees. I've learned hugely from Guido's knowledge of the natural history surrounding some awe...

Re: Oak Society coming to Starkville!
Larry, thanks for tuning in. The IOS is a very cool group; I went to Bordeaux France to connect with them, and was glad I did. The founder has the same name as I do, so he must be way cool. ;)
I hope to see you there in June!

Re: Untranslatable Words

No time to go nort: any good spots between Goteborg and Lynkoving/Stockholm you'd recommend? I plan to fast-fwd th...
