Non ho mai pensato che fosse possibile per qualsiasi tempesta abbattere questo albero gigante …. copre altri tre giardini ora. In realtà sventrato, mi è piaciuto averlo nel giardino sul retro. Spero che fossi tutti al sicuro

If you’re have trouble getting over it go get a ladder, but honestly that climbable or alternatively walk around it.
Save some cuts of it and make something with them. Spoons and bowls are easy to carve.
while tree lost is sad , alreast you now have firewood , look at the positives
To shreds you say.
Might not be able to get over it for it looks big, I’d try walking around it.
Surely much easier to get over it now that it’s fallen over, would have been a challenge while it was still standing, you’d have had to go around
thats gonna cost you a few bob to sort out
Was it not too big of a tree, to have so close to houses anyway?
You’ll now also have more light in the house or sunlight in the garden etc.
Then go around it !!!
Think of all the firewood !!!
You’ve a fine amount of soil there in the root of that tree.
If you don’t get some sort of garden fork and shake it away from the roots and keep it for planting flowers I will be very sad.
Also of course you can use it for wood too. But do not waste this soil. You can make a garden bad – raised bed or a plain flower bed, anything. People buy soil so don’t throw it away
I feel for you. Something like that can never be replaced. That hurts to see.
Farewell, The Giant Tree. King of the conifers. Your body will decay… but your spirit lingers on and your human friends find solace, the loss they have sustained.
At least if fell like that and not on your house.
This is the reason I cut the two evergreens out the back of mine last year. They were a good 30ish foot high, and I’d already trimmed them down a few years ago. But as I get older I knew I wouldn’t be able to manage it. Took myself and my son two full days last may to get them down safely. Keeping the house warm all winter, though fair play to them.
Have you tried a ladder?
Sorry about that. Trees are real landmarks, you really feel the absence of a big one once it’s gone.
Non native conifers should be banned. It’s actually disgraceful they’re not.
I feel your pain. My parents just sent me a photo of a lovely sycamore that was at least 50 years old, knocked down last night in my childhood garden. I’m sad about it. It took out a hawthorn and holly bush on its way down too.
Make a few keepsakes with the trunk. Looked like a beautiful tree.
Happen to a friend over in Rathmines, took down his kerosene tank and spilled ~500 litres into his garden next to the river Dodder. Glad you and the house are safe!
Given the size of the gardens compared to the size of the tree- I think you’re the only person upset to see that tree come down.
That tree was too big for a suburban garden.
A fucking massive Leylandii, is say you neighbours are devastated.
There’s some neighbours there only delighted it’s down and the light is now streaming in their windows
On the positive side, you can now harvest it for all that delicious tree meat guilt free!
Jesus that’s going to be a pain to sort out but at least it didn’t fall back onto the house.
If it’s any consolation, that’s a Leylandi which IMO id a stinking tree, they’re non- native and can grow about 3ft a year. Can’t even use it for firewood.
Not a nice clean up though!
