Mark Anderson Oaks Quotations

In an urban forest, there is strength in diversity - in age and in species. Seventy-year-old willow oaks are all going to decline within a decade of each other.

If they have good growing space with no overhead utilities, there are still good species of oak that will do well. Willow oak is an excellent tree. The problem is not having willow oaks but having so many, and so many the same age.
