Bad weather in Yalta did not spare the beautiful perennial cedar. The city center will remain without it
CrimeaPRESS reports:
The beautiful cedar — and it is already more than 60 years old — was damaged by the elements raging in Yalta. And seriously damaged. The tree was promptly examined by employees of the Zelenstroy Municipal Budgetary Institution with the involvement of scientists from the Nikitsky Botanical Garden
We are forced to make a very difficult decision for us. The elements dangerously tilted the spreading beautiful cedar tree, which is located in the center of Yalta, behind the monument to Lenin. To stabilize it, Zelenstroy employees tried to lighten the crown, but they failed to achieve the effect — it continued to tilt,” the press service quotes the head of the Yalta administration, Yanina Pavlenko.
Unfortunately, the rains that lasted for more than 2 weeks and the strong wind the day before did not spare our cedar. We created an entire commission with the involvement of specialists from the Nikitsky Botanical Garden, studied options, but the cedar was old and, unfortunately, no solution could be found, — in turn, said the acting. Head of MBU «Zelenstroy» Alexander Grigoriadi.
Alas, our verdict is this: you see that this tree is tilted at a large angle to the south. There is an undermining of the root system, this cedar is dangerous,” states Alexander Sharmagiy, head of the department of dendrology and ornamental horticulture of the Nikitsky Botanical Garden.
In the future, in place of the cedar, experts note, it is planned to plant three similar large-sized trees.
