Redwitch posted accurately the info provided by the specialist at the monthly meeting I attended before we had our trees cut down. We cut the trees down approximately 2 1/2 years and 2 1/2 years to go before we can plant any other plants. He said it is best to have the tree and roots removed or at the very least cut to the group and stump ground. One other thing, he also said we should not select any tree that exceeds the roof line in full growth. Unfortunately for many the oak is a state protected tree and cannot be removed or cut down unless it meets certain requirements and then you are required to plant a replacement oak. Yuk!
