Kwanzan Cherry Issue

mbeury610 — Tue, 15 May 2012 15:22:17 GMT

Greetings,

Just wondering someone might have an idea here. Customer has Kwanzan Cherries planted 5 years ago same size stock from same Nursery and spaced at least 20ft apart across front yard. They have flowered nicely the last 4 years. Now this year the 2 on the ends have not leafed out. They have leaf buds but very small and green. The 2 in the middle flowered and are fully leafed out. Our weather in Hummelstown Pa. has been very strange this Spring. No major snowfalls in our mild winter some rain not alot. Cannot find any signs of disease or insect activity. Noticed 2 on ends are not same size as middle ones even though planted at same time. The end ones appear to be planted too deep. I feel this could be the issue causing them to stay small and now decline. Just last week of May 12th still no change. Ideas??

Thanks

Bandit to Run Several NASCAR Truck Series, Nationwide Races for 2012 Season

AmieW — Thu, 03 May 2012 12:54:30 GMT

FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE

Bandit to Run Several NASCAR Truck Series, Nationwide Races for 2012 Season

REMUS, Mich. � Following successful outings with NASCAR Camping World Truck Series driver Jake Crum and Nationwide Series driver Mike Bliss, Bandit Industries has signed on to sponsor at least five more races with the drivers through the 2012 NASCAR racing season.

"We've been impressed by the perseverance of both drivers so far this year," said Travis Lint, large equipment sales manager and NASCAR coordinator at Bandit Industries. "Mike Bliss has been a pillar of consistency in the Nationwide Series, and that's why he's in the top-10 for the points race. Jake Crum gains more experience with each start in the Camping World Truck Series, and he's not afraid to punch the gas and go trade paint with veteran drivers from larger teams. Both drivers carry the same values that have made Bandit Industries a world-leading manufacturer for wood chippers, stump grinders, forestry mowers and waste recyclers � they give 110%, they don't quit, they're not afraid of a challenge and that's why you'll be seeing them at the front before the year is out."

Having just completed another consistent run at Richmond with a top-20 finish, Nationwide Series driver Mike Bliss will take his no. 44 Bandit Chippers.com Toyota to Talladega for the Aaron's 312 on Saturday May 5. Bandit and Bliss will meet again on June 16 in Bandit's home state of Michigan for the Alliance Truck Parts 250 at Michigan International Speedway, with another Bandit/Bliss Nationwide Series race still to be determined.

Camping World Truck Series driver Jake Crum showed his skill at Martinsville Speedway back in March, muscling an ill-handling no. 07 Bandit Chippers.com Chevy around the short half-mile "paperclip" to finish 18th after starting from 31st position in the Kroger 250. Crum will next take the Bandit Chippers.com Chevy to Charlotte Motor Speedway on May 18 for the N.C. Education Lottery 200, followed by a return to Bristol Motor Speedway on August 22. Crum debuted with Bandit last year at Bristol where he ran strong near the front of the pack until a multi-vehicle crash took him out of the running on lap 61.

"We couldn't be happier representing our fans and customers � from our mid-Michigan hometown of Mount Pleasant to the other side of the globe � in the greatest spectator motorsport in the world," said Lint. "Jake Crum and Mike Bliss are great ambassadors for Bandit, and they'll be giving it everything they've got in the races to come. We can't wait to see how it all plays out."

SALSCO, INC. introduces the Model 8635TK, TAZ-TRACK CHIPPER

AmieW — Wed, 02 May 2012 18:03:30 GMT

Salsco took our Model 8635K chipper and made it 35�wide. Yes, that�s right! From 7-1/2' wide down to 35�. We also put it on a set of tracks so it can go almost anywhere. As if that wasn�t enough, we designed and built a special trailer for it. Now you can pull up to a job and chip right on the trailer and blow chips into the truck. By pulling one pin you can then drive the chipper off the trailer and through a 36� gate into the back yard. This little chipper is powered by a 35HP Kubota Diesel Engine and can chip a full 6� diameter log. �Y-Crotch� branches are no problem with its 6�x12� Infeed Opening.

New EDGE� In-Cab Backhoe Increases Operator Cycle Times and Productivity

CEAttachments, Inc., a global supplier of attachments and accessories for compact equipment, announces the addition of an all new EDGE In-Cab Backhoe attachment for skid steer loaders.

The new EDGE In-Cab Backhoe design allows the operator to remain in the comfort and protection of the cab, operate all of the backhoe functions including vertical stabilizers, side-shift, boom extension, swing, dipper and bucket, as well as the ability to move the machine as needed. Without ever leaving the cab, operators will experience more productivity as they are able to increase cycle times in any trenching application.

The EDGE In-Cab Backhoe is easy to assemble and basically consists of installing new cylinder pins, attaching the top and bottom mounts, connecting to the skid steer loader and securing arm hooks. Steps on the backhoe frame make it easy to get in and out of the cab. Once seated, the control assembly tips back and all of the controls for the backhoe and the skid loader are conveniently at your fingertips.

Features of the new EDGE In-Cab Backhoe include a powerful digging depth of 9�4� (2850 mm), an extended reach of 10�11� (3340 mm), pivot rotation of 180 degrees and a maximum angle of bucket rotation of 206 degrees. Vertical stabilizers and 40� (1016 mm) side-shift features allow operators to dig next to buildings, fence lines or other obstacles.

Now Registered in California! Innovative Trunk Injection Products TREE-�ge� Insectici

AmieW — Fri, 27 Apr 2012 13:07:26 GMT

Now Registered in California! Innovative Trunk Injection Products TREE-�ge� Insecticide and PHOSPHO-jet Fungicide from Arborjet

Woburn, MA � April 25, 2012 � The gold rush of tree care has arrived in California! Today Arborjet (www.arborjet.com), which develops remedies for some of the world�s most destructive tree insects and diseases, announced that the company�s industry-leading trunk injection products, TREE-�ge� Insecticide* and PHOSPHO-jet Fungicide, have received registration from the California Department of Pesticide Regulation (CDPR) and are now labeled for use in the state.
Now arborists, landscapers and city officials in California can use TREE-�ge to protect their urban forests against invasive pests. TREE-�ge is applied through the Arborjet injection system in which the formulation is sealed inside the tree. Injecting TREE-�ge directly into the tree�s vascular system not only provides protection quickly, but is also highly effective in controlling insects that feed under the bark. Unlike many other treatments, TREE-�ge provides up to two years of control for insects like Emerald Ash Borer and Mountain Pine Beetle. Also, in keeping with Arborjet�s commitment to research and development, the effectiveness of TREE-�ge to control these insects is well supported by several years of independent research.
A partial list of the insect species covered by the California registration for TREE-�ge includes: Flat-headed Borers, Western Spruce Budworm, Western Pine Beetle, Pinewood Nematode, Pine Coneworm, Pine Cone Seed Bug, Tent Caterpillars, Bagworm, Fall Webworm, Mimosa Webworm, and Oak Worm.
PHOSPHO-jet, a systemic fungicide, is also now labeled for use in California and helps suppress various plant diseases like Sudden Oak Death, anthracnose, Phytophthora, black spot, scab, fire blight in apple, root rot in avocado and citrus, canker blight and many others. PHOSPHO-jet inhibits fungal cells while eliciting a plant health response from the tree.
PHOSPHO-jet promotes stronger, healthier tree cells, root development, and triggers the tree's natural defense mechanisms to make it more resistant to infection and better able to recover.
�The label approval of TREE-�ge and PHOSPHO-jet offers a change for the better in the forest management practices of California,� said Russ Davis, President and Chief Operating Officer of Arborjet. �It�s great news for landscapers, arborists and municipalities in the state, who will have other options to help control many highly invasive insects and a different product to suppress plant diseases. Also, sealing the product inside the tree limits environmental exposure at the time of injection.�
To learn more, and for a full list of insect species covered and states where TREE-�ge and PHOSPHO-jet are registered, please visit: http://www.arborjet.com.

About Arborjet
Founded in 1999, Arborjet�s mission is to provide the most effective and environmentally responsible formulations and equipment to promote overall plant health care and to preserve our natural and urban forests. The company is committed to researching and developing remedies for the world�s most invasive pest insects and diseases to support arborists and enable them to safely treat near waterways and highly populated areas. Arborjet�s products are for both residential and commercial application and are distributed throughout the United States. Arborjet is headquartered in Woburn, MA. To learn more about tree health products provided by Arborjet, visit www.arborjet.com.

The instructions contain important conditions of sale, including limitations of warranty and remedy.*TREE-�ge� Insecticide is a Restricted Use Pesticide and must only be sold to and applied by a state certified applicator. TREE-�ge� is not registered for use in all states. Please check with your state or local extension service prior to buying or using this product.

Davey Employees Show Commitment to Trees

AmieW — Fri, 27 Apr 2012 12:59:27 GMT

Davey Employees Show Commitment to Trees

Kent, Ohio � Every tree counts.
Just ask the hundreds of The Davey Tree Expert Company employees who participated in local community events by planting trees, raising awareness about tree benefits and educating students about the value of urban forests for Earth Day and Arbor Day this year.

Here is a quick list of just some of the key ways Davey employees celebrated Arbor Day and Earth Day:

� Approximately 25 Davey employees and family members joined 600 other volunteers and helped plant 15,000 trees � 10,000 of which were donated by Davey � at the Flight 93 Memorial near Shanksville, Penn. The work, done over two weekends, is part of a planned 150,000-tree reforestation effort.
� A dozen Davey employees and volunteers from the Morton Arboretum worked to raise awareness that �Every Tree Counts� throughout Chicago and its suburbs. Large �value tags� highlighted the benefits of more than 3,500 trees based on tree size, location and species, including the ability to slow water runoff, cool buildings and capture climate-changing carbon dioxide. The National Tree Benefit Calculator, developed by Davey scientists and partners, was used to determine the tree values.
� On Arbor Day, Davey teamed up with Chicago Gateway Green to plant a 3-inch diameter white oak tree at Navy Pier�s Gateway Park in honor of �The Oprah Winfrey Show.� During Oprah Winfrey�s farewell shows in May 2011, Diane Sawyer revealed that in honor of Oprah�s 25 seasons on air, Davey would plant trees at 25 school locations across the country and donate an additional 25,000 trees to areas of the country that were touched by disasters. The trees donated at the Flight 93 memorial, Joplin and Alabama were part of the donation.
� This spring, Davey donated 5,000 trees each to the Joplin and Alabama Tree Recovery Campaigns. Both campaigns were launched by the Arbor Day Foundation to help replant trees destroyed in Northern Alabama and Joplin, Mo., by last spring�s tornadoes.
� On Arbor Day, The Arbor Day Foundation also announced Davey as the recipient of the �Beacon Award.� The award was given to recognize the company�s outstanding contribution to tree planting, conservation and stewardship.
� In addition, Davey employees across the country attended Earth Day and Arbor Day fairs, and talked to students, gardeners and communities about Arbor Day and the importance and benefits of trees.

The Davey Tree Expert Company, with U.S. and Canadian operations in more than 45 states and five provinces, provides a variety of tree care, grounds maintenance and consulting services for the residential, commercial, utility and government markets. Founded in 1880, Davey is employee-owned and has more than 7,000 employees who provide Proven Solutions for a Growing World. For more information, visit www.davey.com.
