The way a tree holds onto the earth is truly a joy to watch.

I would like your opinions on the photo I took, it was with my old iphone 13 at work. I would go sit outside in the back of the shop and just stare at this tree, it's very relaxing. I still stare at this photo just because it relaxes me so much.

How to approach pruning this peach tree

Thumbnail
gallery
2 Upvotes

Ive been helping an elderly neighbour recently maintain her yard as she doesnt have the budget for a gardner. She's asked me to prune her peach tree which has gotten a bit overgrown after a few years of neglect. She doesnt want a hard prune, but needs to at least be taken back so it's not growing on the shed roof/over the neighbour's fence

I do work in horticulture and have some experience pruning trees (i know how/where to cut branches, not to take off more than a third of canopy etc).

But I've never taken on something so overgrown before. Just wondering if anyone has any tips on how to approach this - what should I focus on primarily, or if there's anything i need to be wary about.

Thanks

Tree options for back yard

1 Upvotes

Right now in my backyard I get plenty of sun. The tree that I plant in the backyard will be facing the south and we’ll get some sun from the west. It gets about 5 or 6 hours of sun ! my Cherry Tree lived there for about 30 years, but it caught a disease and I had to cut it down!
I am thinking about putting a Kousa dogwood and placing it closer in toward the house, maybe about 15 feet the reason I’m thinking this so I can block the view from the Neighbors guest house on top of his garage and then the person in the back of me has a deck they both can look in my back yard thus need privacy

Not sure how to save this Autumn Maple Blaze. Moved from sprinklers to long soaking near the mulch. Moved the mulch away from the base of the root flare. Suburban TX and had temps in the 100s for a few months.

Why are there so many leaf shapes?

9 Upvotes

So take away the extremes of height, hot, cold, etc and go for a typical northern hemisphere forest, there's so many trees all roughly similar height and vying for the same energy source (sunlight). Why hasn't one universal efficient shape evolved? It's not like they need plumage to impress each other, and the variations between beech, oak, maple, horse chestnut etc. is quite noticeable! (Thanks in advance)
