Summary: | The health condition as well as the mechanical status of Large-leaved Lime were determined by the visual and invasive methods using IML 400 Resistograph. Ten measurements of the two co - dominant boughs were made in order to specify their internal condition. Despite only minor deadwood in its crown, �Dobros?awa�s� health condition is poor and related to its extensive internal cavities. All the measurements taken using resistograph enabled the full diagnosis of the tree�s health condition. On the basis of the findings, the decision concerning the way and the range of required care treatments was made. |
