According to statistics from Hai Phong City, storm No. 3 caused 82,006 urban trees to fall, of which more than 22,000 trees were in the districts alone. More than 2,500 street trees were uprooted...
In the central flower garden area of Hai Phong City alone, a series of trees were broken and fell, including many perennial trees with diameters of more than 50 cm.
Mr. Pham Quang Ngoc (71 years old, residing in Cau Dat ward, Ngo Quyen district) said: After storm No. 3, a series of trees were broken and felled everywhere. Particularly the central strip of the city, which used to have many old trees that were green all year round, has also suffered a lot of damage, making people regretful.
It is known that in the past 2 days, specialized units have focused their forces and deployed many measures to "save" the ancient trees and restore the central flower garden strip.
A representative of the Hai Phong Urban Environment Company said that since September 17, the unit has been providing nutrients to large trees and old trees that were uprooted or broken by storm No. 3. These are the necessary nutrients for the trees to recover quickly. This method has also been implemented by this unit.
After being pruned, large trees that had fallen were replanted and firmly supported. In addition to providing nutrients, the functional unit also used measures such as applying root stimulants, quick wound healing, and wrapping them with burlap.
According to information from the Hai Phong Parks and Trees Company, storm No. 3 caused a series of urban trees with diameters of 15 - 80 cm to fall. Among them, many trees were up to 70 - 80 years old. Following the direction of the city's leaders, the unit mobilized maximum forces, striving to handle all the fallen trees in the urban area by the end of September 20.
