poor trees
I just called up the manningham council..
I have been driving along the freeway for months looking out the window (Phil is driving I am the passenger) and seeing all these trees with plastic wrapped around their bases.. it's from when they were planted and had stakes with wind shields around the trees .. but those tiny trees have grown into big trees and now have wooden stakes trapped under the plastic strangling the base of the tree..
so anyway I have been meaing to call the council for months.. and today I finally did it.. and a nice lady took down the details and my details and is (hopefully) going to send out a garden person to check on the trees..
I am a bit worried about the trees... there is heaps of them.. they line the freeway and they also are on the edge of the park.. all in nice lines and most with plastic wrap around their base..
So now I will just have to wait and see if the plastic gets removed.. poor trees..
