Rhododendron ponticum harms Scotland’s rainforests.🌸
Instead of using labour intensive methods to clear this invasive, we’re funding research by Treeconomy to turn it into a resource for woodland recovery.

European roller, Coracias garrulus, from a recent spell in Hluhluwe-iMfolozi, KwaZulu-Natal.
Amazing birds. We have a pair nest under the eaves. During a squabble one day I went out and told them off. They sidled away sheepishly. Full of character indeed.
A new Future Woodlands Scotland-funded study shows how material from invasive rhododendron could help fund long-term woodland restoration

The headquarters is going to Utah. Every regional office is being shuttered. The research program is being destroyed.
Ah, no fishermen that I remember. My dad taught technical at Currie HS, he still makes things at 92! I can only have been 4 or 5 when you moved away, and the lady who bought your house is also still there. Nice to make the connection.
Did you live in Currie? Vague recollection you might have been my neighbour.
The wood that pays is the wood that stays. Nice job.
This is just not correct. A beech tree's root system is optimised to be in balance with and support the above ground parts of the tree. Your initial post suggested the shallow roots led to branch failure. Now it causes trees to fall over? Please, if you don't have the knowledge, don't post.
I thought this was a reasonable account. Absolutely not, quite disgusting. Blocked.
Eh? What is the correlation between a shallow root structure and wind damage to heavy limbs?
