The Demise of our Lacy Bark Elm!
We planted this tree the first summer here- 1999. Never thought we would be having it cut down 21 years later. But Mother Nature had a different idea with our deep freeze in February.. It was just as well we decided it needed to be done this year. It would probably have died in another year. It had some big limbs that were getting brittle. They came out with truck that had a bucket so no one.had to climb.
Once again they did a great job of cleaning.up the yard. Also great job of not letting any if thr heavy limbs hit other plants. They covered the yard with plywood sheets where the branches would be falling. No damage to sod either. Very professional
No more work this week. They will be back on Monday he thinks to tackle the Red Oak. They will also use the bucket for it. It needs a lot of lityle dead stuff removed.
We have lacy bark elms in our yard and are concerned about several of them. It hurts to loose a tree in Central Texas!
