Planting a new Oak Wood in Dorset

Return to Home Page


Runt oaks threatened by high grass.

The oaks marked are threatened by high grass, beause of their low habit (either short or spreading habit). The grass, thistles and other weeds under the tree should be pulled up regularly May-November.


44 oaks of low habit among 258 on 16 May 2009. Upper case=OAK, w=willow, ash=ash,
co=conker, sp=spindle, bi=birch, asp=aspen, Pm=poplar male, Pf=poplar female.
 *=deer-chewed, x potted spares in leaf, xxx=new hedge, ^=leaf soon, ?=un-moved
