...on an old wild cherry tree. May 2008 was when I first noticed the fungus. Over the next few years it regrew and developed from inside the tree and weakened the main trunk. Several large branches and 'spare' trunks had already been removed by past Boggy Brae gardeners.

The fungal hand of doom! |
The tree fell over during a gale in December 2013.
|
It's always relatively dry under here |
|
Foxgloves and honeysuckle have colonised the space |
|
and the cowberry and honeysuckle already growing on the old tree are looking fine today. |
