#Plantingtrees in the West Village is the perfect way to spend a fall day! Last week, we #planted four #streettrees! We were joined by #CitizenPruners, and they learned how a #streettree gets planted.

Enjoy the #urbanforest this weekend! #GreenAsh is one of the few #trees with compound leaves that you can find in NYC. They have been the recent target of the Emerald Ash Borer, a beetle that creates markings underneath the bark in the larval stage and leaves exit holes as it emerges as an adult.

Our #TreesforNYHCHA project has been a huge success! As we continue putting forth #treestewardship initiatives to maintain this historic investment, we are still prioritizing #wateringtrees to ensure they survive and thrive through ongoing dry weather conditions.

Congratulations to the volunteers who recently joined our cohort of #CitizenPruners, seen here #pruningtrees during their field outing in Brooklyn as part of their training. We are so grateful to them and the 300+ volunteers that signed up this year for the #CitizenPruner course!

Go outside and enjoy the #urbanforest this weekend! The #Sweetgumtree features star-shaped leaves and spiky, gumball-sized fruits. The #tree earned its name from its fragrantly sweet sap that was historically used as chewing gum. Crush a leaf to enjoy its aromatic scent!

Our environmental educators took a quick break from teaching this week to #prune this #streettree that had a limb obstructing a traffic light. #Pruningtrees not only strengthens them but also serves as a way to help make NYC's streets and sidewalks safer for all New Yorkers!

We repaired this #treebed as part of our #TreesWestVillage project. We removed the blocks, amended the soil, mulched, and our interns watered the #tree. We were delighted to return and see that someone installed a #treeguard - THANK YOU!

#BurrOak, #QuercusMacrocarpa, is being #planted by #NYCParks as a #streettree. The leaves are variable in shape making them a little tricky to identify. The bark has raised ridges from a very young age which can be seen on new street #trees. #NYCurbanforest

#Bottlebrushbuckeye, #Aesculusparviflora, is blooming (and wilting) - it has been hot out in City Hall Park. Get out and enjoy the shade under the #treecanopy this weekend and see if you can spot one before they wilt further with more hot weather on the way next week!
