Return to Selling/Removing Yard Trees

Dead English Walnut (CA)

[Post a Follow Up] [Post to this category]
From: Steve Snelson City: West Sacramento, CA
I have a very large recently deceased English walnut tree In my back yard. I would like to leave it and use it to support a flowering vine. How long could the tree be expected to safely stand?

Greetings Steve: Occasionally, due to the litigious nature of society here in the United States, I have to refrain from answering certain forestry-related questions. When these uncommon situations occur, I must simply inform our readers to contact a local certified arborist, forester, or horticulturist in order to provide on-site guidance and answers. Unfortunately, your tree safety question falls into this category. Therefore, please contact a local certified arborist, forester, or horticulturist to provide on-site guidance. Best of luck!
