URBAN FORESTRY AUSTRALIA - TREE MANAGEMENT & CONSULTING ARBORICULTURISTSTreeNo.Botanic & CommonName100 Ficus rubiginosaPort Jackson Fig*Hht(m)*Sp(m)*DBH(mm)9 13 800ABAge *H *C Comments *SULE *LSR *RV *TPZOpt. &Min.M Good - Epicormics on stem and near base <strong>of</strong> stem, possible root crown damage. Possible old cavities inH 9.6base, could be buttress growth habit but difficult to determine. Highly compacted soil. Largediameter epicormics in canopy. Tree appears stressed, some decline, not obvious why (root8crown damage from stem cavities?).Investigate with Resistograph® test to determine structural integrity <strong>of</strong> rootcrown and extent <strong>of</strong>decay. Where appropriate, remove crossing, rubbing branches, as wounds are point <strong>of</strong> entry fordecay. Mulch root zone (min. 4m radius). Monitor.101 Ficus rubiginosaPort Jackson Fig10 18 860ABM Fair - Topped at 3 metres AGL, with resultant congested, multi stems, some included junctions. Largedecay pocket at 1.5 m AGL, on east side, extent <strong>of</strong> decay not known. Epicormics throughout,average for age.Aerial inspection. Remove scaffold with decay at 3 metre AGL, and other scaffolds with similardamage. Resistograph® test to determine structural integrity <strong>of</strong> stem and extent <strong>of</strong> decay.

Small and large diameter epicormics on scaffolds, possibly a result <strong>of</strong> root damageand stress due to compacted soils. Main scaffolds do not appear to be included at stem junctions.Reduce loading on scaffolds. Remove crossing branches. No more than 10 -15% removal <strong>of</strong>foliage recommended.
