Ellis Allen is an arborist and was the town’s tree warden for years, if not decades. Ellis now lives on the Cape, but still is active as an expert witness on wrongful tree cutting cases, which is where I met him. Ellis actually appears on the cover of the arborists’ book on how to properly value trees for wrongful cutting cases. Ellis shared with me the map that he did of the trees at the Medfield State Hospital, that I have uploaded.
I added the fringe tree in front of building B-2 to his list. The fringe tree looks like a large unremarkable bush except every other year when it blooms in spectacular fashion. If it blooms this year, it would be in the next couple of weeks.
If you are interested in less usual trees, there is also a nice stand of larch trees along the river, on the path from the former power plant site to the hemlock covered look out over the river downstream. The larch trees are to the right of the path, shortly after the path that takes off to the right and heads over to the fields out back of the Dover-Sherborn High School.
