“We take the safety of visitors and guests at the Moody-Bradley House very seriously,” stated Moody-Bradley House Foundation chairman, Melinda Bonds. “Routine maintenance of the beautiful trees surrounding the Moody-Bradley House revealed extensive problems with two of the large trees on the property. As much as we hate to remove any tree, our first obligation is to those who visit this historic Texas Landmark.”
Removal of the ancient water oak, estimated to be approximately 200 years old by tree removal specialist Marietta Tree Removal, began on March 29, 2019. Rapid growth of the trees contributed to its weak wood, which is often hollow by its 40th year. Water oaks do not handle drought very well and drought conditions in past years may have contributed to their deterioration.

“Large water oaks tend to have broken branches and obvious cavities. When these compromised trees are near homes, improvements, and parking areas, I consider them to be hazard trees and recommend their removal,” stated Keith E. Hawkins, LSU Ag Center Area Extension Forester.
After consulting with oshawalandscapers.com they agreed that the tree was beyond repair and must be removed. Another large pecan tree damaged by drought and high winds is also scheduled for removal.
Plans to raise funds for replacement of these valuable shade trees is expected to begin immediately.
