This was a failed farm woodland payment creation scheme from 2001, mainly noble fir. Now fully restocked with Douglas Fir. Looking at the weather now wondering how long we have left of this 2021 planting season...🧐

@JohnWeirFC @essexforester I believe these were Luzette France, grown by Cheviot Trees.

“What we should like to see is the creation of great new permanent... forests of whatever species are found to flourish... and not even-aged plantations destined to be clearfelled... unbeautiful in themselves... out of harmony with the landscape” Sir Arthur Tansley

56% of UK woodlands only contain 1 species - this is at odds with the UKFS and leaves us vulnerable to threats and climate change #icfmembershour #ccf

Question: has anybody experimented with these plugs for rhododendron control? If so, was it effective?

Largest wind blown tree In quite a long time! This beech was still alive, too #veterantree

Beefsteak fungus (Fistulina hepatica) on an English Oak. Bad news - It causes a brittle brown rot. Good news - you can eat it! Not much help for the tree, though. #fungi #wildfood
