That's so sad--they're such beautiful trees, with such a nice, light-freckled shade. Two are slated to be felled near the new Lechmere station--because developers.

I looked again at the tree today - it could be that it's totally fine. Why? I see little branches formed at the bottom of it. Further - I noticed a similar tree on Woodbridge with a similar situation. Could it be that these trees need more time to bloom?

It is indeed totally OK.

Thank you for your request. The tree is under warranty and it will be replaced by the planting contractor as soon as possible.

Thank you for reporting this issue to us. We are pleased to report back to you that this issue is now resolved.
