Hi Peter,I have a large Maple tree (taller than my 2-story house), with roots that have popped out of the ground. Would I be able to put a thin layer of mulch down around the tree to cover up the roots? Thank you.
This is normal for maples. You can cover the roots with a thin layer of much but don’t pile it up against the trunk of the tree. Mulch on the ground is good…mulch against the trunks and stems of plants is very bad.
