Tree doctor


I can't remember if I have commented on this before or not. But we have a maple tree in our front yard and Marc just loves this tree. Every year when we would sit out front under the wonderful shade that it provides, he would say isn't this tree just getting so big and beautiful. Well last year we noticed that it really didn't give us much shade because it didn't seem to have the leaves it normally has. So I called the tree doctor. I wasn't sure that Marc would be up to losing this tree. Well the doctor came out and said that it may be able to survive and it may not. It could either be a fungus that was treatable or not. Don't you just love doctors? Well they deep root fertilized and told us to deep root water frequently. So we tried it. So far this spring the tree does seem to be getting a lot of leaves but only time will tell. WELL........ as with everything else we try to do. Fixing one problem has just brought out another. If you look in this picture of my window out at the lawn you will notice pretty green spots, well that is where they deep root fertilized the tree.. Those spots are the most green, lush, thick spots of grass and the rest of the lawn looks like CRAP........So if the tree survives hopefully the grass will too.

I love the grass...ours is close, but instead of beautiful fertilized spots, we have little holes dug by our border collie...darn dog!!
