Keep the tree or no? Building a house and my construction Company said they would take the tree down and plant a better one
(lemmy.world)
I marked it purple and hope to keep it alive but even my neighbor said its old.
Would you keep it? I am planning to keep it or is it really too old?
100% this. I would never take a builders opinion on a tree, unless they are also a hobbyist orchardist.
Even then I would be sceptical. If they know what they're talking about then they know exactly how little most construction companies seem to know about trees.
Completely agree. I would be extraordinarily cautious of a builders opinion on anything photosynthetic.
Turn your back for a second and they'll have planted a god damned crape myrtle.
