What matters on a Frenchs Forest property?
Frenchs Forest adjoins large areas of bushland, with residential streets between Garigal National Park and the Manly Dam catchment.
Older family homes, newer developments, schools and medical or commercial sites can present wide-ranging access and site-control needs.
Large native eucalypts and angophoras are prominent in the broader forest setting, while private gardens also contain palms, ornamentals and screening plants.
On a Frenchs Forest property, the species name alone does not decide whether a tree should be removed or pruned. Josh looks at the individual tree, the outcome you need and the constraints of the Frenchs Forest site before explaining the practical options.
