Here are some before and after shots of one of our tree removal jobs.
We removed 4 large Tallowwoods (Eucalyptus Microcorys) at Cedar Creek.
These trees were all very distressed and in decline.
The reasons for their poor condition was the combination of:
- a very hot hazard reduction burn which burnt 60% of the canopy.
- followed by root damage and compaction during driveway construction.
- the use of Glyphosate (Round-up) on surrounding vegetation all within the space of 12 months.
This was too much for these already very old Tallowwoods.
North Brisbane Trees has convinced the owners to re-plant more Tallowwoods in a similar location but further away from the driveway and advice has been given regarding how best to care for these beautiful quintessential East Coast Aussie trees.

Some facts about Tallowwoods:
- They usually grow to about 40m but sometimes in excess of this to 70m
- The timber is commonly used for decking but has also seen usage in garden/outdoor furniture
- As it is part of the Eucalypt family, they tend to be popular with koalas who love to nibble on the leaves
