Update: All Good! Trees planted like this on purpose

By Prince Of Petworth


11th and Rhode Island Ave, NW

Update from Dog Daze Social Club: “The team reached out to their landscaper who provided more info: “The burlap and tiny ropes are biodegradable from the nursery and designed to stay on the tree when planted. The tiny ropes are in place to make sure the base root of the tree does not sway or detach from the rootball.”

“Dear PoPville,

situation at the new dog social bar (Ed. Note: Dog Daze) at the corner of Rhode Island and 11th. The contractor didn’t remove any of the burlap around some of the trees… I hope that they don’t die! Free the trees!” (more…)
