Synopsis

This book is a tightly-focused text detailing the physical repair of trees. Historically, the realm of tree care has been defined by forestry and fruit tree maintenance, but has expanded as trees gain value due to increasing urbanization. The author critiques common tree doctoring practices and offers a practical program with three primary directives: protect trees from wounding, encourage healthy growth, and repair damaged trees. The text provides guidance on addressing tree damage with a focus on practical techniques and materials to fill cavities, brace limbs, and prevent decay. Its aim is to equip the reader with skills to maintain and restore the health of individual trees in urban environments.
