Oddbean new post about login | logout @e73e808d I have questions about it springing back. It's an older tree, and was cut at just the wrong time. Even if it does, it won't be the same.
@54ea3b55 No it won't, not for a long time. Though, if it will sprout, it needs careful management. The coppice below is ancient and many-stemmed. Trimmed to one stem, the growth can be amazing. I hope they don't remove the stump until they know for certain that it can regrow. That it has struck such a nerve may help more people to care about the fate of trees, like the burned banyan in Maui. https://files.sfba.social/media_attachments/files/111/150/706/243/852/054/original/3c4524a6ed9e06f1.jpg
@54ea3b55 Here's an example of multistemmed stump regrowth trimmed back to a two trunk to stimulate accelerated and healthier growth that won't be in conflict with itself. https://files.sfba.social/media_attachments/files/111/150/746/877/097/161/original/2630f34b9f13bb95.png
