Trees sometimes grow roots at or slightly above the soil surface where nutrients and water and more readily available.\u00a0 Most roots actually grow shallowly outward, not deep underground, so seeing them reaching above ground is not uncommon.\u00a0 This can result in tripping hazards and uneven surface areas.\u00a0 Further, it can cause challenges for mowing and lawn care near trees<\/a>.<\/p>\n

What not to do<\/h3>\n

The first mistake when it comes to surface roots is a big one.\u00a0 That’s attempting to cut or grind down visible roots.\u00a0 Damaging the root system damages the tree.\u00a0 It limits a tree’s ability to uptake water vital nutrients from the soil.\u00a0 This type of damage can also make trees more susceptible to disease and insect infestations.\u00a0 Root pruning can be done in some cases depending on the tree and growing conditions, but should be managed by a Certified Arborist to minimize the negative impact.\u00a0 Cutting too much of the root system is an easy mistake to make and will result in the loss of your tree.<\/p>\n

Changing the grade by adding additional soil to cover roots is another problematic approach.\u00a0 Piling up a heavy layer of soil over roots cuts off their oxygen supply and will ultimately suffocate the tree.<\/p>\n

Recommendations for dealing with surface roots<\/h3>\n

Developing mulched beds is the best strategy in areas where you can see roots.\u00a0 A thin layer of mulch, from the root flare to the edge of the canopy, will\u00a0 help protect the roots.\u00a0 As with soil, piling up a heavy layer or mounding a mulch volcano<\/a> around the trunk is harmful and not helpful.\u00a0 Just a few inches of fresh wood chip mulch is a good practice and creates a healthy growing environment.<\/p>\n

Shallow-rooted tree species<\/h3>\n

Many large trees develop surface roots. As tree roots age and grow, they thicken and push upward.\u00a0 However, some tree species are naturally more shallow rooted.\u00a0 This includes maple, especially silver maple, as well as willow, sycamore and beech.\u00a0 For trees known to develop shallow roots, avoid planting them near paved surfaces or other areas were surface roots will cause issues.\u00a0 Keep in mind, though, that other conditions may also impact the development of roots growing at or above ground level.\u00a0 Poorly drained or compacted soil can force roots to the surface.\u00a0 Soil erosion due to rain, wind or poor grading can also expose roots.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
