Today at 7 am I welcomed 5 strapping lads into my garden. Dave and Co from https://rightwaytreesolutions.com/ were here to rid our Poinsiania of the cactus and cat's claw that had taken hold of it all these years and to give it a good prune as the branches were over extending and in danger of falling. Well I haven't had so much fun in a long time, not just because they were all so lovely and chatty, as well as hard working but also watching the sheer expertise required to do a job like this. Dave made it look so easy. He was like Tarzan, flinging himself from branch to branch, issuing instructions to the lads below and doing a fine job of cutting off all the invasive weeds as well as the overhanging branches. My heart was in my mouth watching him as he seemed to balance on nothing and managed to handle his saw and the ropes all superbly. In the process I believe we disturbed a possum or two but they will be back together with all the birds tomorrow I am sure. Dennis and Doreen were perched on branches just above supervising it all!
This is the invasive cactus which took over most of the tree's trunk.
