In our garden stands a big and beautifull tree. It acts basically as a roof over much of the area. It shields what would otherwise be an anonymous inner city concrete backyard and turns it into a sort of a garden, a space that belongs to us, shielded from the high rises that surround it.

Today the landlady had it cut to the trunk, without any reason at all.

I really had started to like that tree, I had spend some warm autumn evenings gazing through it's leaves into the clear Marseille sky.

This makes me sad.

magneticflux:
Yeah, that practice is always bizzare to me... sometimes they seem to do it so that branches dont grow into the transmission lines, but usually it seems pointless. I think the practice is called "capping", or something similar. Our across the st neighbor had a few of his trees "capped"; my only conjecture was that he wanted to reduce the amount of autum/winter leaf raking. The branches will sprout back in time, then it will appear absurd for awhile, with a little puff of leaves atop what looks to be an excessively high trunk.
