Fair enough. Stands to reason the would have some notion other than having to work around them. The only tree species I really know are stuff I work with from Home Depot

We'll plant some new ones!!! And in traditional fashion not properly tend to them.

As an aside, I noticed the other day that a very good portion of the saplings planted on the big berm by the VIA flyover while riding line two were dead. Like at least half were either dead or severely stunted. I don't know much about arborism but maybe that's just the way its meant to be? Not like you can bring a water truck there. Some live and some die.

Its the ones in the planter beds and other obvious spaces they just give up on. Hurdman station much? I cant even sit on the curb anymore with my feet in the planter bed. I bet they paid more to fill them in with concrete.
