Late Summer Tree Caliper Measurements - September 2022
I posted the growth details of our front yard Bald Cypress tree last week. Those photos and details are here . But, I also wanted to get the rest of the measurements on all of our trees before they dropped their leaves. #7 on my 2022 to-do list included 'capturing the caliper measurements' of our trees. This post details the growth that I've seen on some trees and documenting other newly planted trees (since the last time that I measured). There are a few trees that we've lost and a few that we've gained since January 2020 - the last time that I measured. At the bottom of this post is a series of photos showing the measurements. But, the best way to look through this is by looking at this table below. Showing their Jan 2020 size, their September 2022 size, the growth in inches and percentages. First, the Hornbeams. Most grew in the 30-40% range with the first one growing almost 70% (which feels like an outlier). They're mostly >3.5" trees
