I'm a resident of Quadraro old, and like other people here I would like residents bringing media attention the fact that the oak Quadraro, maybe it can still be saved. We realized that in fact the tree is still alive and maybe you can do something! There were already cases of trees uprooted by natural causes (wind, snow) and then replanted with success. Our oak (in our emotional sense) appears partially uprooted, leaning against a low building. While the branches that have been amputated had already withered leaves, those on the trunk are still fresh, indicating that the roots still support the plant from the viewpoint of life. The problem is the fact that the oak stands in a private area: Forestry Services Garden City, contacted various organizations say that only the owner can take action. Allow to die like an old tree is worthless. I do not know what could be the answer of the owner, but the fact that, as reported by his article, the neglect may have been one of the causes of the fall is not very encouraging. And then there's the problem represented by sheets of asbestos cement roof that served as cabin, crushed by the fall of the oak and now pose a risk to health and the environment! What can you do? Talking with my neighbors, many people were activated individually to seek a solution by making phone calls and research. This tree was a symbol of Quadraro and all seems to be a common feeling of great loss: we can not resign and I would like to find a solution. It should be an expert (agronomist or more) could get the tree and make a report to assess whether you can do something. Sincerely.
