I found this interesting article about Crape Murder.
Every year I see this going on and for years I never could figure our why people did it.
They either chop them off at the ground or they cut them off a few feet up as soon as they get to looking good.
Here are a few pictures of Crape murder.
What a horrible thing to do to a tree.
