Measuring Trees - Category A Photo Gallery and Information

Trees growing with a clearly defined single clean stem measured at 1.5m.

Giant Sequoia often have a flared base and taper quickly.
Measure at 1.5m vertically above ground rather than by placing the tape up the sloping trunk.

Most conifers will be category A trees such as this Monkey Puzzle.

Woodland trees usually conform to this category.

This “pedestal” or “pot” Larch creates an interesting feature but can be measured normally at 1.5m
