Course Description
Trees planted in the Urban Landscape over the last few decades have resulted in infrastructure damage and in some cases unnecessary injuries. Special care must be taken when selecting appropriate tree species. Ruben Green, M.S. examines problems with existing urban trees that are prone to branch failure and root damage. Participants will leave with a better understanding that is applicable and practical for both commercial and residential plantings. This presentation will allow opportunities for you to bring your specific questions to a Consulting Arborist with over 30 years of experience.
