The Workshop

During this workshop you will get an overview of how to apply a robust process for selecting trees for managing in urban locations. The workshop will be delivered across one day comprising four 1.5-hour sessions. 

Session 1: Trees as key landscape components

    • Criteria for selection

Session 2: Design requirements

    • Factors relating to physical attributes that enrich the urban landscape

Session 3: Biological tolerances

    • Factors that prescribe the tree’s inherent potential to succeed

Session 4: Functional characteristics

    • Factors that enhance the tree’s potential for survival

After completing this workshop, attendees will be familiar with the criteria of a meaningful tree selection process and understand how urban treescapes can be enhanced by using species that offer durable function and performance.
