You will gain insights into:

• The Updated definition of CODIT and its relevance to tree physiology.
• The sequence of tree wound responses across four distinct phases:
  • Phase 1: Air intrusion and initial tissue death.
  • Phase 2: Invasion by harmful agents and early defense.
  • Phase 3: Spread of decay and secondary reactions.
  • Phase 4: Encapsulation as a survival strategy.
• How different tree species react to injury and the variability in wound responses.
• Why understanding CODIT is essential for minimizing long-term damage from pruning and other interventions.
• Best practices for tree care that align with natural healing processes.
• How to tailor treatments to ensure trees reach Phase 4 and successfully encapsulate damage.

We are delighted to bring to you this exclusive workshop on CODIT, for the first time in the UK. 

Tickets are available at £360 (inc. VAT) for this one-day workshop at Kew Gardens with a sumptuous lunch provided and there are two dates to choose from:  Thursday 23rd April and Friday 24th April 2026.
