 Have you ever walked past a tree in the park or looked out of your window at a tree in your garden and wondered "what happens to trees in the winter?". It's a fascinating question! The fact is that trees are miraculous lifeforms that can often go unnoticed as we go about our daily lives.

 Does your garden seem a bit bare? Spatially challenged, with not much room to make changes? Enhancing the aesthetics of your garden, without using up all the available space, can be a challenge. Dependent upon your tastes, the soil conditions, the vegetation already in yours and your neighbours gardens, are all contributing factors that can affect your decision.
If having a tree in your small garden is something that appeals to you, but you're not sure one will fit - think again! There are a number of trees that can successfully grow in a small garden. Here are a few suggestions.  It’s often the case that many people haven’t heard of tree surgeon, until they are in need of one. Tree surgeons, also known as arborists, look after the health of your trees. They can assess if a tree needs to be felled, its health condition and appropriate action that can be taken to improve its look and shape.

They must be physically fit to climb up and down trees and be knowledgeable about the different biological afflictions that can affect trees such as various funguses and parasites.  Perhaps you have a tree that is growing close to your home, and some large limbs/branches are looming ominously over your rooftop? Upon further inspection, you find that the tree limb appears to have a disease or is rotting?
You know the tree limb is going to have to be removed and the question you now need to consider is whether or not you can do it yourself, or if you should get in a professional tree surgeon to do the job for you… The answer may come as no surprise – get a tree surgeon in to look at the job!

 Have you noticed something odd on your tree? Do you think there might be something wrong with it? Here is a quick guide on how to visually inspect your tree. Start from the bottom up. Start by examining the roots. Look for signs of the ground heaving up, severed roots or signs of decay or fungi, such as mushrooms. Then move up towards the tree trunk - just above the soil. Can you see any peeling, loose bark, cracks or deep slits? Inspect the rest of the trunk for signs of decay, such as signs of swelling, cavities, soft or decaying wood or small holes.

It’s common for people to believe that trees simply look after themselves, but this is not the case. They can suffer from disease, rot and infestations. Well-established trees and shrubs, after years of growing well, can start to decline and that is why it is important to get them regularly inspected by a tree surgeon. The following list outlines a few issues that your tree can suffer from. Powdery mildew This issue can be seen on oak trees. It’s a fungal disease of the foliage and stems which covers the surface of the plant. This issue commonly occurs during summer which is caused by dryness at the roots and poor air circulation. Once solution is to add mulching and avoid high-nitrogen products. Drought stress Tree often get overlooked during dry spells. If left without water for very long periods they will experience, leaf browning, tree decline and increased susceptibility to insect and disease. Nutrient deficiency There are cases when trees are not suited to the soil that they have been planted in and become deficient in iron, manganese or different macro and micro nutrients. Nutrient deficiency manifests in the following ways: partial or complete yellowing of leaves, stunted growth, poor flower or fruit production. Pest infestation This issue is caused by dead leaves and branches as well as mal-pruning. If left un-inspected, the tree can become a hazard to people and pets within the vicinity.

With the 10 ton winch, we managed to pull out the tree in quite large sections and then deal with it on a surface level, reducing the danger to the team.
