BOLZANO. The municipal garden of Bolzano announces that during 2023 they were 6,100 trees checked: of these, less than a hundred presented situations that required further more in-depth investigation due to the presence of visible fungal fruiting bodies, or larger cracks, rot or large cavities. Following further assessments, about sixty of trees (less than 1%) turned out to be in need of demolition, 20 of which are protected by the Green Regulations.
Most of these 20 plants present in various streets or green spaces of the city had already reached the end of their life cycle a few years ago, but had nevertheless been preserved with appropriate pruning.
But now, given that the fungal infestation is now so advanced that its stability can no longer be guaranteed, the possibility of the fungus spreading to other healthy trees must be limited. The felled trees will be replaced within the year by as many young plants.
