Yesterday I re-photographed several coast live oaks in Santa Barbara that have been undergoing fire mimicry treatments for two years. Here are the results. Note that the latest photos were taken a few weeks later in the season than the original photos. This will have some affect on the results due to the few weeks of additional growth. However, the examination of a control (untreated) oak here indicates that this additional growth cannot explain the significant increase in canopy health seen in the results with the many treated oaks.
Any questions?
