Trees That Should Not Leave The Nursery
Here is what I have so far. many trees planted today should not have left the nursery.
Here are some examples. Please try back later as I will be building this site.
Above: This tree has bark that has rolled in. Note how the trunk envelopes the branch. This tree should not leave the nursery. Foreseeable problems for the future.
Above: This tree has wounds on the trunk.
Above:
This Japanese Maple Blood Good has wounds on the trunk that closed or sealed. The wound was compartmentalized. These types of wounds, I believe, are some of the primary cause of cracks that result in the blame going to “frost” cracks or “sun” scold. I will look for a tree with cracks to dissect, that have such conditions as the latter.
Above: This tree has what is called a V-Crotch. This will be a problem for this tree as the two leaders grow and wound each other. A poor selection for planting.
