Description
SPECIFICATION
Plant Treatment Medium
This invention relates to a medium for the treatment of tissue-damaged trees, shrubs and plants, the medium including bark-green or barkgrey colouring matter, and a base of an aqueous dispersion or emulsion of synthetic plastic materials or natural resins.
Damage to the tissue of the bark of trees and shrubs by natural or man-made causes such as e.g., snow, wind or the action of frost, gnawing by wild animals, impact from vehicles or lawn mowers, or by pruning-back and grafting in any season of the year, have hitherto been treated in many different ways. A very old treatment, in use for probably 3,000 years up to modern times has involved the use of medium comprising a mixture of loam or clay with cow dung, which is spread in a pasty consistency on to the wound of the tissue.
This coating has the great disadvantage that it is quickly influenced by the weather and crumbles from the wound before the wound can heal over.
This primitive protective medium has in recent decades been mainly repiaced by tree wax-a mixture of colophony and wax. But this material also has not brought fully satisfactory results, more particularly since it likewise rots quickly under the influence of the weather and as a result exposes the wound again. Finally, with the progressive development of chemistry, synthetic plastic materials more particularly materials with an aqueous base-are used increasingly for treatment of tissue damage on trees and shrubs.
By means of these synthetic plastic material preparations-marketed in liquid to highly viscous form-the tissue wound is provided with a protective layer drying to an elastomeric consistency which more especially because of its excellent resistance to weather conditions not only promotes the healing-over process i.e., the growing of new cortex over the wound from the edge, but makes it possible for such healing to take place at all in a satisfactory manner.
For the covering of tissue wounds preparations have been used based on many kinds of raw materials, coloured by intermixing chemical or mineral pigments therein. The colour tones have predominantly been black, brown, red, pink, blue, yellow and green. But more particularly there has been widespread use of a tone appropriate to the bark colour-in other words a bark-green or barkgrey colour-for these tree care media, where it seemed desirable for aesthetic reasons to cover relatively large tissue injuries in such a way as to blend into the environment unobtrusively and harmoniously, and to avoid disfiguring the landscape which would undoubtedly result if a tree wound were painted with white, red, blue, yellow or green paint.
In this connection, careful observation has shown that the healing process i.e. the healingover of tree wounds, proceeded significantly more quickly and more satisfactorily if the applied wound coating-irrespective of its nature and composition-was of a colour in accordance with the bark of the treated tree. Application of a tree care medium with a bark-green or a bark-grey tone was found to be particularly effective.
By measuring the temperatures at the artificially covered tree wounds and at the healthy tree bark regions a considerabie difference was found to occur wherever the colour of the wound coating differed considerably from the colour of the bark of the tree being treated. But wherever a bark-green or bark-grey wound dressing was used, i.e. one similar to the bark of the tree being treated, it was found that there was a surprising correspondence in the temperatures of the wound dressing and the healthy bark. This harmony of temperature conditions was an explanation for the better healing of tissue wounds in the cases where tree care media were used which had a similar colour to that of the bark of the treated tree.For here the wound areas were not subjected to such sharp temperature fluctuations from the influence of the weather as they were where tissue injuries had been covered in other tones. There was no shock effect on the assimilation ability of the tree, and on the contrary the healing operation could proceed in a
harmonious mode.
Such a medium is known from published
German Application 22 47 771, and comprises a dispersion or emulsion of a synthetic resin, having the following composition:
50 parts 50% dispersion and/or emulsion
of synthetic resins, internally or
externally plasticised,
20 parts umber earth colour, natural or
cement grey,
5 parts bentonite,
5. parts methyl cellulose,
5 parts alcohol,
1 part wetting agent,
1 part fungicide, 1 3 parts extender, such as baryta, chalk
100 parts
Instead of the extender it is also possible to use finely ground synthetic or natural cellulose or cork powder.
The present invention has as its object to
provide a medium which has improved plant care and plant healing properties compared with
known media, and brings about still better and
quicker growing-over of plant wounds.
According to the invention this is achieved by providing a medium having a base of an aqueous dispersion or emulsion of synthetic plastic materials and/or natural resins, tree waxes or fruit tree Carbolineum, and a natural colouring matter or matter synthesised therefrom.
Thus, according to the invention, in contrast to known media for tree and shrub treatment, in addition to the colouring matter, such as for example the umber or cement grey, there is also added a colouring matter which occurs in nature and which may be synthesised.
Preferably carotene or chlorophyll is used as the colouring matter, or a mixture of such substances.
Thorough tests have shown that when using preparations of the kind initially described the healing of plant wounds is promoted to an exceptional extent if chlorophyll or carotene in natural or synthetic form is added thereto in a quantity such that the end product is given an augmented bark-green or bark-grey tone. Instead of or together with the carotene, other carotenoids may also be used.
A preferred embodiment of the invention will now be explained in more detail with reference to some examples listed below:
The liquid and solid fractions of the media are stirred by means of an agitating mechanism to a homogeneous mass and are then ready for use.
They are appiied by means of a spatula or brush on to the graft regions or tissue wounds, previously cut away cleanly, of the trees or shrubs and dry out to an elastomeric, actively breathing and weather-resistant layer.
Examples 1. 50 parts 50% dispersion and/or emulsion
of synthetic resins, externally or
internally plasticised,
10 parts chlorophyll, natural or synthetic,
5 parts carotene, natural or synthetic,
5 parts umber earth colour, natural or
cement grey,
5 parts bentonite,
5 parts methyl cellulose,
5 parts alcohol,
1 part wetting agent, part fungicide, 13 parts extender, such as baryta, chalk
100 parts 2. 90 parts tree wax,
8 parts chlorophyll, natural or synthetic,
1 part carotene, natural or synthetic,
11 parts umber earth colour, natural or
cement grey.
100 parts 3. 95 parts fruit tree Carbolineum,
0.5 parts fat-soluble aniline dye umber or
grey-green,
0.5 parts carotene, natural or synthetic,
3 parts chlorophyll, natural or synthetic,
1 part umber, natural or cement grey.
100 parts 4. 50 parts of a 50% dispersion and/or
emulsion of synthetic resins, externally
or internally plasticised,
10 parts chlorophyll, natural or synthetic,
5 parts carotené, natural or synthetic,
5 parts umber earth colour, natural or

5 parts bentonite,
5 parts methyl cellulose,
1 alginate, 5 parts alcohol,
1 part fungicide,
13 parts very finely ground synthetic or
natural cellulose or cork powder,
100 parts.
