Brief Winter Update - Wisconsin Garden Video Blog 1020

Every gardener is faced with making an unwanted decision. Ours revolved around two large 50+ foot tall Maple trees in on our front berm. We originally raised and moved both samplings shortly after we move into this property many years ago. Our biggest concern was that the larger of the two trees was now within 12 inches of our underground gas line. Both trees were heavily leaning toward the street and would pose a serious problem in years to come. Despite our arborists attempt to lighten the load on the street side it never made a difference in the angle. After last summer's wind shear and dozens of large fallen trees we had to make that fateful decision to have them cut down. I know, sad!

Last week our wonderful arborist came with his crew and within 4 hours had them removed and chipped. Now we have two large mulch piles that as spring arrives and the weather begins to warm up, we will begin spreading this hardwood mulch. Today however, our goal is to simply remove a section of the mulch that is partly covering the root ball of one of our McIntosh Apple trees along the entrance of our main driveway. After less than 15 minutes we completed the task and went back inside to finish several other winter-time projects.
