We had to take one big one out last year, which was rotting from the inside. <br /><br />I read that in Northern Ireland they took out 100,000 young ash trees last year, in an attempt to prevent the spread of disease (ash dieback).

I had 21 ash trees in my yard, but last year discovered they all had died. They all had to come out. It's the same story around my neighborhood, and all over America actually.<br /><br />https://blog.jimgrey.net/2015/06/10/goodbye-ash-trees-goodbye-money/Jim Greyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06941665968757241278noreply@blogger.com
