In Arrasate, on the Paseo de Arrasate they want to plant a tree in a new plaza and ask people what they prefer: the pedunculated oak (Quercus robur), the red beech (Fagus sylvatica “Purpurea”), the thigh (Tilia sp.) or white maple (Acer pseudoplatanus). Pagoa has been made with the illusion of the participants. Now they would change it. The one who prepared the choice tree will know why to propose these four alternatives. They would do it knowing the future of that tree! It's that in a few years' time they won't start cutting, harming or pruning here and there! There the tree can grow and live peacefully.
Trees generally have a hawthorn in our urban centers. We're afraid of the tree, we don't see it grow, spread and spread. Maybe because it reveals our smallness? We need to take it underneath, cut it, crush it... And we have a lot of myths built from fear. Mythology dominates us when it comes to seeing our trees. The myths express the unfair treatment and, in most cases, the homicide we give to our trees. Because we're in times of tree change, here are some basics.
“The plant must penetrate deeply into the hole.” When we change any plant, we have to place it at the same level that we once lived. The fingerprint of the earth will be perfectly visible on the neck. Change to the same level.
“The tree has to be closely tied to the stake.” The important thing is that the tree that has just been modified is sticking well. To do this, movement is not bad. A tree that is too closely subject never gets into natural life. You're always going to live with that handle. It is better to stick to the stake, but quiet, feel the wind and get used to the balance. It will be easier to stick and come.
“You have to prune some branches before you change them.” It has also been considered appropriate to remove certain branches in a similar proportion, as it is believed that it will lose some roots when changing place. However, the branches have reserves and it is better to change the plant as it is. If any branch withdraws, it will disappear after moving its reserves. So, cut it off. In case of a previous cut, the plant will lose food.

Blood is needed to constantly renew and remember the value of trees! That is how we are. We'll have a huge forehead and a very broad liver ... Not to mention thickness of the skin.
