 TALKING: TREES; The Care Of a Leafy Amenity - New York Times
But left to grow unchecked and unmanaged, trees also can shorten the life of a roof, sever power lines, harbor caterpillars that later feast on a homeowner's prized shrubs and destroy the effectiveness of a passive solar greenhouse that depends on unimpeded access to sunshine.
The alarm should be sounded, utility officials say, whether the tree stands in a homeowner's yard, a neighbor's yard or the street beyond.
If the tree poses no threat to power lines, any trimming or removal will have to be done by a private tree surgeon or, if it stands on the sidewalk, by the community's public-works department.

Second, the tree reacts to the nursery stake as it would to another tree growing next to it competing for sunlight -- it grows away from it.
I promise, if you have planted the tree properly and started with a tree with the right size rootball (one foot of rootbal per one inch of caliper) your tree will be ready to stand on it’s own.

Forsyth County Commissioner Marcie Kreager said the tree dispute is an example of development-related issues that are increasingly coming to the forefront in Forsyth and much of the rest of North Georgia.

 Kathryn Sullivan's Talking to Trees. The Eternal Night Science Fiction, Fantasy and Horror Web Site
Talking to Trees is the latest book written by Kathryn Sullivan and follows the experiences of Jody as she is drawn into a magical world and expected to help save a talking tree from attack by a great evil.

It is not often that you are fortunate enough to read an original fantasy story as many of them follow the same kind of story line (a group of adventurers go on a journey) but Talking to Trees definitely had a refreshing and enjoyable theme.
