Trees

Locust tree thorns are not poisonous but like any cut or stab wound, they could leave you open to an infection.

The poisonous parts of black locust tree are the leaves, seed pods, inner bark and young shoots.

Plant blood orange trees in well-draining soil, water regularly but not excessively, fertilize in spring and summer, and prune to remove dead or damaged branches. Protect them from cold temperatures and provide adequate sunlight for optimal growth and fruit production.

Pine needles can create acidic conditions as they decompose, which may inhibit the growth of some grass species. However, pine needles likely won't directly kill grass unless they are laid in thick layers that block out sunlight and suffocate the grass. It's best to remove excess pine needles or use them as mulch in moderation to avoid negative impacts on grass growth.

Pines have longer needles grouped in bundles, while spruces have shorter needles attached individually to the branches. Pines also have larger cones compared to spruces. Additionally, spruces tend to have a more conical shape compared to the more irregular shape of pines.

The trunk of a tree is a slight modification of the stem of a regular shrub.

As trees are larger than shrubs the trunk has to provide structural support for the leaves and branches (canopy).

Trunks are normally covered with bark which offers protection to the delicate network of xylem and phloem vessels which run just below it (in the actively growing portion of the stem); remember the centre of the trunk is in essence dead material - which provides the rigid support.

The trunk extends the reach of the tree, enabling trees to stretch their branches and leaves high into the canopies of surrounding trees - looking for light.

Juniper bushes typically have a lifespan of 50-70 years, although some can live longer with proper care and maintenance. Factors like climate, soil quality, and disease can also affect their longevity.

Depends, has there been any changes to the environment immediately surronding the tree. Has salt water entered the ground near the tree,? Have you checked the tree for signs of minute insects eating the leaves? Has there been any damage to the bark? Are there any other symptoms?

First impression is that the roots have been compromised somehow.

I would suggest that if you love this tree you get expert advice from a tree expert who can not only decide what the problem is, but fix it. And do it quickly, some damage trees cannot recover from.

No, trees are considered biotic, as they are living organisms that undergo various biological processes such as growth, reproduction, and response to stimuli. Biotic factors refer to living organisms in an ecosystem.

The scientific name for Yew is Taxus.

The definition of bonsai includes "in a shallow pot or tray" so if it's in the ground it's NOT a bonsai. There are garden plants that are pruned to look like bonsai, but a bonsai must be in a pot.

Montane forests are located in mountainous regions where the climate tends to be cool and wet. Trees in montane forests have evolved to be leafy to maximize their ability to photosynthesize and capture sunlight, which is often limited due to the canopy cover and elevation. The dense vegetation and abundant rainfall in montane forests also provide ideal conditions for trees to grow lush and leafy.

The trees you are referring to are likely members of the genus Fagus, also known as beech trees. They produce flowers in long catkins that hang from the branches and produce nuts within prickly burs. Beech trees are typically tall, deciduous trees with smooth gray bark and oval-shaped leaves.

The sandbox tree, also known as the Dynamite tree, is capable of exploding like a bomb. Its fruit pods build up internal pressure until they burst open with a loud bang, scattering seeds up to 100 feet away.

Trees bloom to produce flowers, which contain reproductive organs that allow them to reproduce. The blooming process attracts pollinators like bees and birds, which help transfer pollen between flowers, leading to fertilization and the production of seeds. Ultimately, blooming plays a crucial role in the tree's reproductive cycle and ensures the continuation of its species.

Trees like other plants, turn carbon dioxide into oxygen. They give animals places to live and hide and they are beautiful. However trees are a renewable resource. They are necessary to our existance. We use their wood for housing, paper, fuel and many other things. We should never needlessly cut down trees. Many of the larger timber companies plant them as a crop and when harvested replant them. This ensures that we will have toilet paper and other nesessities.

After the flowers are finished in the spring.

not true. you should feed them for as long as the have leaves and only stop when they shed them and go to sleep. BTW pear trees need lots of iron.

If you feed this tree constantly while it has leaves it will have greatly reduced blooming. You should not feed it until the flowers have finished. If you feed it continuously until the leaves fall it will have leaves much later in the year and reduce its dormant time. That would be like you taking a pep pill before going to bed.

One feeding with general fertiliser in the Spring should suffice unless there is a unusual problem.

Pour 1 litre of round up weed killer around the base...... then just wait.

The spider you are describing is likely a species of jumping spider called the Regal Jumping Spider (Phidippus regius). They are known for their distinctive black body with white spots and bright orange front legs. They are harmless to humans and are active hunters that rely on their excellent eyesight to catch prey.

Weeping Pussy Willows can grow to be 40 feet high. Pussy willows don't grow much more than 5 feet.

To start a eucalyptus tree from a seed pod, collect the seeds when the pod has fully dried on the tree. Separate the seeds from the pod and plant them in seed-starting mix, lightly covering them with soil. Keep the soil moist and place the container in a warm, sunny location to encourage germination.

I think they were not intented to be protective spikes. Since they are usually by branch intesections it almost seems as if they were naturally occuring braches themselves but for some reason were stunted and left very very shape.

Since the thornes are always out in the open air and collect dust and debris of every type, a thorne wound can fester up.

The only naturally growing nut tree in North America is the American chestnut tree (Castanea dentata). It was once widespread in the eastern United States before a devastating blight in the early 20th century drastically reduced its population. Efforts are being made to restore this iconic tree in its native range.

A Qat or kat bush is a shrub that can grow up to 10 meters in height with dark green, glossy leaves. It produces small white flowers and red berries which contain the stimulant drug found in Qat leaves. The leaves are harvested for their stimulant properties and are commonly chewed for their effects.
