Promen<\/strong><\/em>ade guid\u00e9e ce dimanche: Cimeti\u00e8re du mont Royal, 10h \u00e0 13h, gratuit, entr\u00e9e: chemin de la for\u00eat, inscription: 514-279-7358<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n

Une des grandes plaisirs de marcher au Cimeti\u00e8re de mont Royal, c’est de voir les arbres avec toute l’espace dont ils ont besoin pour s’\u00e9tendrent au max. Les arbres, autant que les pierres tombales, sont les rois du cimeti\u00e8re, lequel, avec sa cr\u00e9ation en 1852, est devenu le premier parc am\u00e9nag\u00e9 sur le mont Royal.<\/p>\n

Les titans de cette famille royale comprennent du ch\u00eane rouge, de l’\u00e9rable \u00e0 sucre, quelques micocouliers gigantesques, un \u00e9norme fr\u00eane \u00e0 deux troncs, des c\u00e9risiers tardifs et \u00e9rables argent\u00e9s, un couple de caryers cordiformes et, finalement, un seul orme d’Am\u00e9rique qui regne au dessus de tous les membres du palais. Certains, je dirais, sont les vestiges de la for\u00eat de l’\u00e9poque de la ferme Spring Grove que appartenait \u00e0 Michael McCulloch.<\/p>\n

Le Dr. McCulloch, chirurgien, \u00e9tait un des premiers profs de medecine au Coll\u00e8ge McGill — le nom de l’universit\u00e9 McGill en ce moment l\u00e0. \u00c9tant donn\u00e9 la situation de son terrain sur le flanc nord du mont Royal et les ravins, mar\u00e9cages et sources li\u00e9s au ruisseau de la Montagne, Spring Grove Farm \u00e9tait plus maison de campagne qu’une v\u00e9ritable ferme. C’est \u00e0 dire qu’en 1852, il y avait plus de for\u00eat que de champs.<\/p>\n

Heureusement, le design du cimeti\u00e8re a permis de garder certains des vieux arbres; les arbres de for\u00eat \u00e9taient enlev\u00e9s graduellement au besoin et d’autres arbres \u00e9taient plant\u00e9s par les familles des d\u00e9c\u00e9d\u00e9s.<\/p>\n

Les nombreux ch\u00eanes rouges (Quercus rubra, <\/em>Red oak) matures du cimiti\u00e8re sont soit de la for\u00eat originale ou des plantations du d\u00e9but; alors les ann\u00e9es 1850. Avec le m\u00eame grosseur de tronc que les vieux ch\u00eanes rouges du parc du mont Royal, les ch\u00eanes du cimiti\u00e8re, vieux d’au moins 150 ans, ont le luxe de s’\u00e9taler leurs branches. Dans la for\u00eat, par contre, \u00e0 cause de la pr\u00e9sence des autres arbres autour, le ch\u00eane rouge va pousser plus haut avant de s’\u00e9taler ces grandes branches.<\/p>\n

Pourquoi rouge? C’est \u00e0 cause de la couleur de son bois, un bois dur, utilis\u00e9 pour les meubles et les planch\u00e9s. Quoique fort exploit\u00e9 au 19i\u00e8me, le ch\u00eane rouge n’a pas la m\u00eame importance historique que le ch\u00eane blanc, celui aux feuilles arrondies. Ce dernier, grace \u00e0 son bois qui ne pourrit pas, a \u00e9t\u00e9 surtout expoit\u00e9 pour constuire les bateaux de la flotte marine brittanique et pour faire des casques pour le vin.<\/p>\n

\"Ch\u00eane<\/a>
Ch\u00eane rouge \u00e0 gauche, Ch\u00eane blanc \u00e0 droite<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

Les esp\u00e8ces du ch\u00eane blanc (ch\u00eane anglais, \u00e0 gros fruits, le bicolore, etc.) sont moins nombreux au Qu\u00e9bec que le rouge. Le rouge est plus du nord et c’est le ch\u00eane que nous connaissons des hauts du mont Royal avec son \u00e9norme tronc gris aux larges cr\u00e9vasses. Curieusement, hors la montagne, on le voit peu, m\u00eame s’il r\u00e9siste bien aux conditions urbaines. C’est peut-\u00eatre justement sa fa\u00e7on characteristique de pousser aussi large que haut qui d\u00e9courage notre service des arbres.<\/p>\n
