A distinctly Australian arboricultural element, which accommodates local climatic and environmental conditions, has emerged based on the traditions of European arboriculturalists and the modern theories of American arborists. As yet there is no single professional arboricultural association in Australia, but attempts at improving tree management, arboricultural research and professional development auger well for the future of the Australian industry.
