to it's potential and not looking into the future. All to often trees are planted
with out thought and out of ignorance. Where as they could have easily have
cut this down. Again out of fear and ignorance let alone not knowing it's
history, knowing that this specimen is quite old. Not to mention that this
survived our latest hurricane among many others.
What a surprise to discovered a couple of weeks ago to see tree trimmed up
while on one of my weekly bike rides.
Here is a transition photo picturing it's transformation to it's current state.
Many only know Podacarpus to being used for a hedge. Like many
hedge specimens that are actually trees being subjugated in a constant
trimmed state. It is known to for obvious reason for landscaping
fits to recommend tree types for the high maintenance.
Whereas in this case the exception is shown when these get to grow
into their own and given a standard trim that is another man made
state of being, but a more recognizable state we mostly associate
as an urban tree.
