As you can see this ficus palm tree was declared dead. We had removed all the dead leaves and were about to uproot the tree . But we see a new cluster of leaves emerging. This tree is here to stay. Any such phenomena at your end?

A century old maple tree... wow that tree has fulfilled its purpose in this world. Even in our place, there are many century old trees belong to akasya family, its so happen most of them were cut down because of road widening. Imagine that, these old trees were cut off because of road expansion.

This usually happens during change in seasons. Glad you'll noticed the cluster before uprooting the tree. Your presence of mind saved a life today!

It is a good thing that you were able to see the greenery and save the tree.
