03 - Poinsettia old woundOne of the numerous old wounds on the poinsettias.
Should have been properly treated when fresh. Hole open on wood inside tree and vertical opening ideal for rain to get in, accompanied by insects + mushrooms...SunTzu

04 - Poinsettia old woundOne of the numerous old wounds on the poinsettias.
Should have been properly treated when fresh. The branch has been broken/cut twice ; hole open on wood inside tree ; not looking good for aesthetics.
As we are almost above wall separating with road, I suspect ko-to-mo teams treatment.SunTzu

05 - damaged woodBranch seemed clean and healthy, but decay + boring insects were quite advanced.
Pls, note that the cut was not perfectly clean here, but that branch was cut further, with a neat cut ^^SunTzu

09 - The state of the art neat cutP Ton demonstrates how to do a good job ^^SunTzu

10 - looks like finished treatmentBoth cuts look like finished treatment, look good with ruber paste ... but on the right, the cut direction was not optimal, meaning that the tree could not cover the cut directly. The tree then has to 'sacrifice' the branch remnant first (dead branch), wait for it to fall off, then try to cover the hole.
Exact opposite of tree doctoring. Had to ask the guys to climb again...
The one on the left is perfect.SunTzu

11 - up high !Almost 10m high !
On the first day I had to fight for the guys to buy and use ropes, and find a harness. Once they got up they understood and listened...
Had to teach them how to use them when high on small branches, and nobody got injured. (sigh... ! )
Trimming almost finished on that one, cutting branches scratching neighbor's houseSunTzu
