    what sort of tree, How tall and  if it's trunks what's happened to the top. I think we need a photo!

    Why are they dead?  If it was a disease or a pest infestation that may affect anything you try to grow up them as well as how long the remaining trunks are likely to be stable and not rot or fall over.

    Also the kind of soil you have, the variety of tree and their root spread and roughly where you are - weather exposure etc - will make a difference to what can grow.

    Do you mean dead as in the whole tree has died, or just bare trunks on living trees?

    Hi @karenpatricia and welcome to the forum :)

    I think we need to see some photos please .... that way we'll have a better idea of what you have to deal with and the options available to you.  :)
