#EnfieldOakLatest Following the casual felling by contractors for #MitchellsandButlers owned Toby Carvery following false claims the tree was dead, the tortured stump is resprouting. Toby Carvery is under pressure to install a £10k sprinkler system to keep the shoots alive. M&B decline to comment!
A 500 year old oak tree, on the ancient tree inventory, has been felled for "health & safety" reasons by a Toby Carvery in an Enfield park. Pub chain owners Mitchells & Butler say they "did the decent thing". Enfield Council describe the felling as criminal damage. "The tree belonged to Enfield".

Sequoia sempervirens (redwood; world's tallest tree) is well adapted to high-intensity crown fires (eg 2020), but Sequoiadendron giganteum (giant sequoia; world's most massive tree) is adapted to surface fires only!

So I'm switching up streams and introducing a chatting/podcast element into FFXIV because it stops me from burning through the game.
I'll also be doing a ReSprouting session where I'm gonna start again on Gilgamesh with an Alt - Talandar.
And hopefully I can go back to playing some StarCraft

All along the seafront near Dunboy, Beara: an example of the insane waste of time and energy in cutting invasive rhododendron without immediately treating the freshly stumps with herbicide.
It's all rapidly resprouting, and very soon the situation will be back to square one: an utter disaster.

so far i'm having a hard time explaining to the zumpkins that i do not in fact want them to keep resprouting in the compost bin.

The guy who did the original planting did, and I’ve got a lot of stuff resprouting from that. I also sowed a mix in between some perennials, but I’m thinking of pulling some of it because the weeds are growing into the annuals I sowed.

There are herbicides you apply to the cut stump to prevent resprouting. They're sold as "stump and vine" killers and often include a sort of swab to apply the liquid to the cut surface.

After a wildfire, plants have three main ways to bounce back:
🌱 Resprouting from surviving tissues
🌾 Regrowing from seeds stored in the soil
🍃 Recolonizing via seed dispersal
But how do these strategies interact? And can they complement each other? (2/7)
