You made this extremely pleasant and fun. Thank you for the practical info.

One of aspen’s handy behaviours is the way it drops branches in windstorms. I’ve use a lot of aspen over the years and I find the younger windfall branches and twigs serve my purposes very well.

In my area they are bent over in heavy wet snowfall that bends the trees with almost every tree permanently bent until they shoot out growing straight up again.

Ty Skeeter for your wisdom. But cutting the branch is not like taking hair from the dog. It's a limb. It grows back but the tree still feels it. ❤
