🌳 Can you spot what's missing?

This tree had no visible root flare when we arrived. Over time, soil can accumulate around the base of a tree, or a tree may simply have been planted too deeply, leaving the root flare hidden below grade.

Using an air spade, we performed a Root Collar Excavation (RCE) to safely remove excess soil and expose the trunk flare without damaging roots. This process also allows us to inspect for girdling roots, decay, and other hidden issues that may contribute to stress or decline.

Sometimes improving a tree's health starts by uncovering what should have been visible all along.

Proud to assist with another project on the University of Oklahoma campus in Norman.

As part of a planned sidewalk improvement project, our crew safely removed a declining oak tree using professional climbing techniques and protecting the existing landscape.

Whether we're caring for a backyard tree or supporting a large campus project, we're grateful for the opportunity to serve Oklahoma's trees. 🌳🧙‍♂️ 💚

Recently we came upon this rope around a tree.

Trees are remarkable at compartmentalizing injuries, but ropes, wires, chains, fencing, signs, and other objects left against a tree can become embedded as the trunk expands over time.

The most common culprit is often staking a young tree and simply not realizing how quickly time passes. What was meant to support a newly planted tree for a season can be forgotten for years as the tree continues to grow.

The worst we've ever found?

An old farm plow.

The tree had grown around it completely, leaving none of the metal visible.

Let's just say the stump grinder "Godzilla" wasn't very happy about it. 😅

What the strangest thing you've ever found growing into a tree?

Treating chlorosis in a pin oak today here in Norman.

Yellowing leaves with green veins can be a sign of iron chlorosis — a common issue in pin oaks growing in Oklahoma soils.

Today’s treatment included trunk injections as part of a plant health care plan to help improve nutrient availability and overall tree vigor.

Not every stressed tree needs removal. Proper diagnosis matters.

“Go-go Godzilla!” 😄

This year marks 20 years with “Godzilla”. Don’s longtime stump grinder and still one of his favorite machines.

Over the years, Godzilla has gone through several shields, but Don’s homemade version has been the best one yet.

Today’s stump had an old buried T-post in it, and Don knew exactly how he wanted it handled. Unfortunately, I didn’t get to the camera fast enough before he had already handled it. 😂

A little T-post battle and a little Godzilla nostalgia for the OG Tree Wizard. 🌳
