I marked it purple and hope to keep it alive but even my neighbor said its old.

Would you keep it? I am planning to keep it or is it really too old?

    100% this. I would never take a builders opinion on a tree, unless they are also a hobbyist orchardist.

      Even then I would be sceptical. If they know what they’re talking about then they know exactly how little most construction companies seem to know about trees.

        Completely agree. I would be extraordinarily cautious of a builders opinion on anything photosynthetic.

        Turn your back for a second and they’ll have planted a god damned crape myrtle.
