GARDEN
Never prune trees that don ’ t belong to you .
Late last year , Johannesburg City Parks arrested six employees from a landscaping company in the Fourways area , after they were caught illegally ( and badly ) pruning six acacia trees estimated to be as old as 30 , with a value of around R600,000 . Their reasoning ? The trees were blocking advertising signage , and the company was commissioned by a nearby shopping centre to increase the visibility of the signage .
