We delayed our visit to the Arboretum this month due to the ferocious storms blowing over the last few weeks. However, the carnage of trees which came down in the storms is now evident. It is such a shame to see fallen trees! We removed all the smaller branches from the trunks but there is still a lot of work to do. Contractors will be coming in to remove the giant trunks.
