Effects of High Wind on Small Trees – Garden Notes

Показать описание
High winds can damage small trees by bending them too far. Certified Arborist Wes Hopper examines a small golden rain tree. At first, he notices a dead limb and on further inspection he finds wounds and bark cracking on the trunk from the ground up to the dead limb. These wounds are from strong winds which bent the tree farther than the wood could support. Wes shows some of the ways the tree is trying to compensate for the damage. Wes also gives recommendations for helping the tree recover.

If I am planting 3’ baby thin trees (Podocarpus Maki) in a very windy spot (15mph+ 24/7), how do I get them to grow straight all the way up with branches on all sides? Should I have multiple attachment points up the stake so the top doesn’t grow bent over?
