Great presentation, Rob!

+Randy J, just debark all Elm tree wood killed by the disease to prevent breeding ground for Bark beetles which "Vector" Fungus. Or bury it for awhile like they do here in USA!
Here in West Cork,the Elms are coming back.
The suckers died back two or three times over the last 15 years or so,but are now 30 feet high.
Fantastic! Please check out and share what we are trying to accomplish in Texas and across the entire US. We are focused on educating and promoting tree salvaging & re-purposing. Only business in Texas focused on it & we need more community involvement & more businesses focused on urban tree re-use.
Sir can you please Make vedio on Himalayan elms
Very well explained and so accurate too.
I tend to see a lot of hedgerow English elm trees, and I have one outside my house
Thanks for the video it was very interesting – I have been working with Natural England to protect some very old Elm woodlands in our village. It has been a hard slog trying to get the local authority to identify them and get more information about them to finally realise how special the trees are and that we should be protecting them. They have been continual woodlands and have great historical value. In addition, are immune to the Dutch Elm disease, or I should say have been isolated away from the Dutch Elm Disease. The council have informed me they will make their decisions on possible TPO's in September 2020, I find this hard to believe that it takes almost two years to do this when I put my request in September 2018 This is my opinion in not protecting historical woodlands and not enough emphasis is being placed on protecting important environmental elements in this county to enhance our biodiversity. Natural England have though put some of the woodlands on the AWI as an indication that these woodlands do need special treatment. Sometimes trying to protect the environment can take a toll, but if no one does it, what would we have left?
dutch elm wiped out so many trees here. We are still going into the timber to harvest standing deadwood red elm for firewood. It burns like coal 🙂
