co-dominance


Co-dominance has been a word that's been added to my vocabulary this week - co-dominance as in a double tree-trunk, not as in something mutually kinky.  Apparently that's what this Californian Live Oak - the huge, and protected tree at the side of our house - demonstrates.  One of the branches tilts downhill, and our tree people suggest that it needs to go.  We're not so sure about that, and nor was the guy in the Urban Forestry Department (who knew that existed?) at City Hall when I called to ask whether or not we needed a permit to do work on it - if work is, indeed, done.  He said he needed pictures - and here are two of them.  That was at 9.35 this morning ... yet to hear back ... As I said in my email to him - we just want to do what's best for the tree ...
