Eyes on the trees

Many gardeners overlook trees — here’s what to know, Page F2

Don’t forget about the trees Many gardeners overlook them — here’s what to know ing a tree out in the middle of the lawn,” Roddick said. “Most shade trees we use are forest species, and they often do better growing in a group.” Understory trees, for example, like flowering dogwood (Cornus florida), are not suited to baking in full sun.

Hellebores and other early perennials are shown under an old apple tree that were planted as tiny landscape plugs or divisions. Trees can take a lot of punishment, but they have their limits. (MARGARET ROACH VIA THE NEW YORK TIMES)

By Margaret Roach

New York Times

f trees could talk, they’d probably start by saying, “Enough with the insults already.” In more than 30 years of working with trees, Christopher Roddick has made it a practice to listen to their unspoken language — and to show respect for some of the largest and oldest organisms among us.

Roddick is the head arborist and foreman of grounds at Brooklyn Botanic Garden, a post he is leaving this summer when he and his wife, Rebecca McMackin, director of horticulture at Brooklyn Bridge Park, move north. Their first stop: a fellowship she is doing at Harvard University. But Roddick won’t forget the trees at the botanic garden — old friends by now — and what they have taught him. Especially about how we oblivious humans expect them to adapt to our garden-making and home improvements, rather than the other way around.

Too often, we don’t take into account the needs of our trees. “As an arborist, I usually don’t get the call until a tree is in trouble,” he said. “And I ask, ‘Has anything changed around it?’” At first, the answer is almost always no — and then something like, “Well, we put the patio in nearby. But that was five years ago.” “A tree can hold its breath for a few years, but then ... ” Roddick said, trailing off, as if preferring not to recall all the bad outcomes. “When you’re attacked, you defend

yourself — but for a tree, that means without being able to get away.” Trees have adapted, making compounds to help fend off herbivory and fungal infections. But there is no chemical strong enough for some of what we wreak: We dig in or drive over their root zones. We prune, not because a tree needs it, but because a garden bed below has grown too shady for our liking. We strand a tree in a sea of lawn, where it is exposed to unwanted fertilizer and an automated watering schedule. “I’m not a big fan of plant-

Beyond ornamental horticulture The way Roddick sees trees has shifted since he first studied ornamental horticulture. “I learned about trees from the point of view of selecting species because of their ornament — of what’s in it for us to look at or eat,” he said. But a tree’s appearance is not the whole story. “When you look at a tree, you’re only seeing part of it,” he said. “But a third to half of its mass is underground — massive root systems that are mostly in the top 18 inches of soil.” In compacted urban soil, they might be in the top 6 inches. Today, he is more in the mindset of ecological landscaping than ornamental horticulture. He takes an ecosystem view, recommending species that help create habitat. He asks himself, “Can I use some of the insights I have seen in nature to inform my

use and care of trees?” That might mean arranging several trees close together, underplanted with native sedge (Carex). And perhaps leaving fallen trees in place to decompose on site. As they break down, these nurse logs, as they are called, cycle nutrients back into the soil and can support seedling trees, the next generation. The way he thinks is not the way most of us think, but trees might be happier if it were. What makes for tree resilience? A key takeaway for Roddick: Not all species or individuals react the same way to changes. Similar actions by gardeners may trigger different effects, depending on the kind of tree, its life stage and its overall health. Trees with very heavy, woody root systems, like white oak (Quercus alba), are not as flexible about disturbance as a fibrous-rooted species like dawn redwood (Metasequoia glyptostroboides). “If I knew I was going to establish a garden, and I wanted a plant that’s easy to work around, Metasequoia is one I would feel pretty comfortable with,” he said. “I’m not going SEE TREES, PAGE F3

to be able to dig around trees like white oak very much. Especially as it ages, it handles disturbance much less.” A fairly young tree with more resources to draw upon can be more forgiving. Where damage or disease occurs, species-specific differences in resilience show, too. Some trees are better at compartmentalizing — at walling off a wounded or decaying section to protect the larger organism. Oaks are fairly adept at this, Roddick said, which contributes to their generally long life spans. At the other extreme are willows, cherries and magnolias, which are poor at compartmentalizing. As he put it, they’re “more the livefast-die-young model.”

Finding specific seeds can prove a challenge

WICE THIS PAST spring I felt I was at the mercy of seed companies, first during a frantic, last-minute search for a packet of “Golden Bantam” sweet corn, and then a couple of weeks later when I needed “King of the Garden” pole limas. My searches, the former a failure and the latter a success, made me feel a kinship with the American gardener of 200 years ago, to whom the quantity and variety of vegetable and flower seeds were limited. Few stores sold seeds in those days, so many Colonial gardeners would either save their own seeds or exchange seeds with fellow colonists and Indians. Seeds also were imported from Europe, then sold by hucksters along with their assortment of dry goods, foodstuffs, and hardware. The American seed trade expanded in the 1800s. The Shakers, who helped found the American seed industry, introduced the innovation of selling seeds in paper

The reality (and gift) of shade Trees cast shade. That’s the good news, especially in a warming world. But many gardeners balk when the shade foils plans for growing plants like tomatoes or roses. Roddick recalls one client who dreamed of a rose garden at her new home, where there was a mature sycamore maple (Acer pseudoplatanus). “I suggested doing shade gardening instead, to preserve the tree, but it wasn’t to be,” he said. “People want more light for the lawn or garden, as opposed to designing around the established shade trees.” A common request: Couldn’t he limb the tree up or LIMITED "cleT LIMITED LIMITED 50" to Timlet eCu r® erCi®m uPtete ro®nuatltPeacre®Auto-Drive™ 225"0R"5 eT c0yim resC open its canopy inttemore TIME TIME TIME OFFER OFFER 55 light?

packets rather than from bulk bins. Plain paper packets eventually gave way to tempting, multicolored seed packets. Color seed catalogs followed. B. K. Bliss & Sons were the first seed merchants to take advantage of our expanding postal system, so, beginning in 1869, gardeners merely had to drop a letter in the mail for their favorite seeds. This brings us up to today, with untold number of seed varieties at the fingertips of every American gardener. Right? Maybe, maybe not. In fact, only a few seed companies dominate the seed trade today. Since seeds are sold nationwide, varieties rarely have a local flavor (pardon the pun), but rather must attempt to appeal to gardeners in the rainy Pacific Northwest, the dry Southwest, the short-season Northeast, and the sultry South. You still can buy seeds of locally favorite varieties of flower and vegetable seeds if you search out farm stores in SEE REICH, PAGE F6

Don & Dave Runyan | Project of The Week

An open-and-shut bookcase

COMMON FIXture in law offices today, traditional lawyer’s bookcases were originally designed to protect expensive law books. But it doesn’t take a legal genius to recognize that this versatile design, characterized by individual stacking compartments (“cases”) fronted by glass doors, is a classic way to display almost anything. True to the originals, our do-it-yourself version includes oak construction (the traditional choice), a flexible, modular design and glass doors that lift out and

slide back into the cases — all without the expense of an antique or a modern reproduction. Simple enough for any woodworker, the project is constructed one case at a time, following the same steps each time; only the dimensions change. Once the cases are complete, simply stack them in whatever quantity and configuration works best for your space. As pictured, the assembled project measures 5 feet tall by 4 feet wide by 1 foot deep. Individually, the bottom case measures 16 inches tall, the top one is 12 inches tall and the two middle cases are each

14 inches tall. The Lawyer’s Bookcase plan, No. 700, is $9.95 and includes step-by-step instructions with photos, exploded assembly diagrams and a complete shopping list and cutting schedule. Please include $3.95 per order for postage and handling and allow about two weeks for delivery.

US mortgage rates bounce up to 5.51% By MATT OTT

Associated Press

Average long-term U.S. mortgage rates were back up this week, just as the latest government data shows inflation has not slowed, meaning the Federal Reserve is almost certain to raise its benchmark borrowing rate later this month. Mortgage buyer Freddie Mac reported Thursday that the 30-year rate rose to 5.51% from 5.30% the previous week. One year ago the average 30-year rate was 2.88%. The average rate on 15-year, fixed-rate mortgages, popular among those refinancing their homes, rose to 4.67% from 4.45% the previous week. A year ago, the rate was 2.22%. The Federal Reserve raised its benchmark rate by a halfpoint in May and another three-quarters of a point last month, the biggest single hike since 1994. Fed policymakers have signaled that much higher interest rates could be needed to reign in persistent, four-decade high inflation. Most economists expect the Federal Reserve to jack up its borrowing rate another half-to-three-quarters of a point when it meets later this month. Fed officials acknowledge that their rate hikes could weaken the economy, but suggested that such steps were necessary to slow price increases back to the Fed’s 2% annual target. Mortgage applications have declined 14% from last year and refinancings are down 80%, the Mortgage Bankers Association reported this week. Those numbers could retreat further with more Fed rate increases a near certainty. Layoffs in the housing and lending sectors have already begun. On Tuesday, the online mortgage company loanDepot said it was cutting 2,000 jobs.
