Control of Madrone and Tanoak Stump Sprouting
Published online by Cambridge University Press: 12 June 2017
Extract
Madrone (Arbutus menziesii Purch.) and tanoak (Lithocarpus densiflora (H & A) Rehd.) are often considered undesirable along the Pacific Coast. These weed trees are removed to increase forage production; to remove competitors of more valuable timber trees, especially Douglas fir (Pseudotsuga menziesii (Mirb) Franco); or to obtain firewood or charcoal. Tanoak is occasionally cut for tanbark harvest. Control of stump sprouting following cutting would be desirable.
