This past summer, Monster Tree Service of Cleveland recently saw success in the removal of one of the oldest white oaks, (Quercus alba), in the state of Ohio. Following a windstorm earlier in the summer, the owner of the white oak noticed a limb, measuring approximately three feet in diameter and eighty feet in length, that had split and fallen from the tree. This tree was over 350 years old and was registered as a historic tree. The homeowner contacted the Cleveland Metro Parks Forestry Department since their property is next to the Metropark Property. The Forester, to his dismay, recommended the tree be removed as it was now assessed as a peril to the property owner and the surrounding area.
