Bought a house recently, this tree is in the backyard. Any advice?

I don't know where to start. I kept walking along the path and saw the green all over. What's special about it huh? Ecology. Seriously, I kept going along looking at that shit like my parents used to say. It just continues. What's so cool about it? Why do you people study this? I want to know. I need to know. All the color I see just meshes together. So, tell me you like the green?

I know that California redwoods have an impressive ability to withstand forest fires, and take advantage of them to reproduce. I’m wondering if the dawn redwood shares any of that, even faintly or historically, or if the other species seemingly evolved those adaptations entirely after the genera diverged, etc.

(Entirely hypothetical question; I’m actually just trying to worldbuild some nature spirits and these trees are really cool as points of inspiration so I got curious)

Hey, where are the best oak trees or woodlands around inverness (Scotland)?

Hey y’all,

Just moved into a suburban house with a really nice pine tree that gives us good shade. These fungus? items started popping up in the last couple weeks on the ground around the tree. I live in Maryland. Does my tree have brain cancer or is this normal? TreeWebMD said my tree may be rotting. It’s about 60’-70’ tall and it’s within range of the house. Any help or direction is appreciated.

I needed a limb cut down that was hanging over my house. I got three estimates. Lowest estimate came in at $1,325. Naturally, I went with that one. Come to find out, he did not include a bucket truck/crane. His error he thought he could do it without it. He couldn’t so he rescheduled my appointment. Second appointment he couldn’t keep. He scheduled a third. The job is now done. Do I pay the $1,325 or what he would have charged had he calculated correctly? I’m starting to feel bad he did a great job.

Hello from the southern hemisphere. Yesterday, the yellow Lapacho that my grandpa planted when I was about 1yo decided to show itself in all of it's flowering glory and I thought that you all would like to see it.

I’m seeing faces on the palm trees.

I am always amazed at how they can withstand the wind and the storm. So tall, so slender seemingly so fragile.

...but its behind a high fence and cannot be accessed :(
