So I was looking through a notebook I have used to save articles about plants and I found this article from This Old House magazine (March/April 1998!) titled, “Finances: What’s a Tree Worth?” (by Gary Belsky). Considering the massive tree loss we have suffered here in Tuscaloosa, I thought it might be of some use to some folks when filing their taxes next year.
Useful nugget for those who have not already lost their trees: “An early [landscape] appraisal is also wise for those who live in an area prone to lightning, tornadoes or other of nature’s perils.” Yeah.
