"Today's mighty Oak is yesterday's little nut that held its ground."

Three tree health tips from Arborday.org:

*Topping trees usually causes more problems than it solves. Besides being bad for the tree's health, often after being topped the side branches will grow up as tall as or taller than the original height of the tree.

*Tree roots grow 1 to 2 times the height of the tree. And roots do not like the poor soil under roads often the roots are stretched out all along side of the road.

*Be careful with the weed wacker and lawnmower if you remove bark all around a tree it can kill it. This is similar to a process called girdling.

All of these tips come from  Arborday.org. Visit them to see '9 important things everyone should know about trees'.
