I'll guess Jarrah (Eucalyptus marginata) but I'm probably wrong. Often leaves, flowers and seed capsules need to be analysed to narrow it down to a single species.
Almost looks like a river red gum or possibly a swamp gum Blair. The shape of the leaves (long and slender) and the way the larger diameter limbs and trunk has the striated bark which smoothes out and becomes whiter on the smaller limbs makes me think that it is a red river gum, I believe the scientific name is Euc. camaldulensis - they get huge!
I think that I have learned a bit about the young man who started commenting on the trees so many years ago. Glad to hear that you are in University but don’t slow down on your education of trees and tree care. What direction are you leaning towards?
I have worked on this tree several times over the past 25 years and Tree ID blank. I wish I could help. Hopefully someone will come in the proper identification so all of us will know. Joe
i got an unrelated question you might be the only person able to answer... we got a large fig tree in our yard and unlike most people we planted it for shade rather than the fruit, i need advice on pruning for health but all i find is how-to bucher large trees to be small now i have already done some light pruning in the inside of the crown, mostly spindly branches growing into the interior of the crown, but there are still quite a few crossing branches etc. my question would be, can i prune out all the small inner branches and create something like an upside down bowl in terms of canopy or do i need to leave some despite them having no chance to compete with the upper canopy? What is better for the tree? I know lions tailing is bad thanks to you, but does that apply to upright stems? my goal is a healthy tree that continues to grow as big as possible, its about 5-6m tall, the tips have never been pruned so the structure of the canopy is intact and i want to keep it that way... any tipps appreciated
Remind me of those three guys that went to the barbershop. walked in and the barber said have you guys been in here before and they say yeah you eucalyptus last time.
G'day, Unfortunately without close ups or perhaps some further images, features or measurements of buds, cones, leaves it's going to be a hard one to pinpoint exact species and perhaps subspecies. I know of having to obtain seeds and growing juvenile eucs to distinguish particular species from one another. Believe in Australia we have 930+ native species.
3:52. If you tie an overhand on a bight and leave a long tail, the climber can easily tie in the next piece to be lowered while the knot on a bight keeps the rope from slipping through whatever false crotch device you are using. Once the piece is tied off, pop the knot-on-a-bight free, haul in a little bit of slack and cut away!
So many different ways to do the same job. Put ten different climbers on the same job, it will get done ten different ways. Which way is best? The one where nothing gets broken and nobody gets hurt!
Globulos is the Tasmanian blue gum. Used as a plantation tree for pulping rather than timber. I think this tree could be a yellow bloodwood. Coymbia eximia. Bark and wood colour match. Hard to see a good shot of the leaves. Flowers would need to be in groups of 7?
@@arboristBlairGlenn Ok, basically the arborist came out and was mystified. There are green buds all over the tree, and it has just not budded out. He did not have a solution, and this was an experienced pro. All the limbs and twigs are alive and limber. It just won't bud out. He is going to monitor all summer.
"Here's what the leaves look like" good thing there's a pause button! That tree cleaned up very nicely. Good work guys!
Guess I was moving too fast with the camera. Thanks
I always tell people to get rocks away from trees. They get very hot and suck all the water out of the root system. Mulch ,mulch mulch 😊🌳
👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻

I have seen Jarrah as lumber but not the tree. (Possibly?)

Have not seen any comments from you in a long time kiddo. I think you are correct! Life treating you okay?
@@arboristBlairGlennYes Sir! Still tuning in from time to time but life is very busy with University so I don’t have much time on my hands!

Great job cleaning up the gravel!
It was a pain in the ^**
It looks like an Eucalyptus polyantheomos.
Need to look, thanks Bino

Thanks Joe, I tried looking it up but no joy

I would really need to see the tree. Send photos. Blairglenn@gmail.com
@@arboristBlairGlenn i sent you a message, thx a lot

Is it too much hassle to lay some plywood sheets down over the rocks?
Yes. Withe the plants and the lights and the sprinklers, plywood would not help. Some jobs are just to hard to protect.

What kind of run time are you getting from the electric blower?
About two hours per charge which gets me through the week. So much nicer without the noise!
Follow the yellow brick road 🤯
Interesting yard. Pain in the rear
Trash cans over the shrubs and lightweight tarps overall. Nearly impossible to keep everything out. Yuk
I find that traps over plants make it harder to walk around where you are working. Trash cans and cones are good but how many trash cans do you take?
@@arboristBlairGlenn no doubt you would need quite a few of them but stacking cones or popup cones take up less space.
@@arboristBlairGlenn We try to have these things with us. It pays dividends during clean-up.
It's hard to tell from the video but I'd say it's a eucalyptus globulus. Tassie Blue Gum
Actually, after watching the whole video I take that back
We call the globulus a Blue Gum. Never heard of a Tassie gum

Not very often you ask for help to I D When you find out you’ll never need to ask again
700 species eucalyptus eh ! Phew
🤪🤪🤪🤪
I figured with my Australian viewers, someone would know.
@@arboristBlairGlenn 🤞I’m sure mate 👍
I left you an email message re: linden tree. Remains a mystery, even to the arborist.
I may have missed it. I get about fifty emails per day
@@arboristBlairGlenn Ok, basically the arborist came out and was mystified. There are green buds all over the tree, and it has just not budded out. He did not have a solution, and this was an experienced pro. All the limbs and twigs are alive and limber. It just won't bud out. He is going to monitor all summer.
Now I’m curious. Let me know what happens.
@@arboristBlairGlenn I will do it. There are a few sprouts coming out of the middle of the limbs, but none of the terminal buds are leafing out.
