- Today we will analyze the reasons why this maple tree is dying back as well as coming up with some solutions and describing different problems that maple trees have. we have a Acer species of tree that is showing signs of stress large portions of the tree have died. we will analyze this tree to determine if there is anything we can do to save this tree from what appears to be a serious problem.

It was the right move to dig down along the trunk looking for rot and girdling roots. This tree was planted too deeply, the root flare was not exposed before planting. Then seasons of mulch were applied compounding the problem. This is Acer palmatum and they do not like wet feet. The tree could benefit from vertical mulching using a mix of sharp silica, pine fines, and phc roots organic fertilizer. The old pruning cuts where stubs were left is not proper for Acer palmatum and should be taken back to the branch collar which is much closer to the trunk on Acer palmatum to prevent the bark from rotting down the trunk which is a problem for these trees as they age and don't recover from branch removal as quickly.
I think so too you’re absolutely right
PSA Japanese maples acer palmatum are NOT hardy in any way, though acer generally are.
Not many acer like wet feet either, drainage is very important for 9/10(estimation) of tree species, and shrubs for that matter.
A lot of people don’t understand that many maples trees the roots need to breath. And plant them to deeply and they can rot.
plant high and watch it thrive
There is unrest in the forest
,there is trouble with the trees,
as the maples scream oppression, and the oaks ignore their pleas..thanks rush !
excellent description of root flare -- thank you for sharing!
Cant hear much of the video. Adding that music was a poor decision.
How is that tree doing now?
II just like to say what a fantastic video on a Japanese Maple tree thank you for sharing that with us it was all some I will keep that in mind in near future thank you and be safe😍😍❤❤👍
Its actually a shade tree. It DOES NOT grow best DIRECTLY in the sun. A simple movement to a shade indirect light solves this.
I believe the term "shade tree" means trees for giving shade. At least here where I am from, all the nurseries sell these as shade trees, for providing shade to the landscape. Lol anyway, unless it's a young sapling, or distressed in any way, these maples and most other trees thrive with direct sun. As long as you keep it healthy, it's well established, and watered. It should be just fine in the sun. Like all living (and I guess non living) things, too much of anything will do some damage. And too much heat, with adding those other issues I mentioned can definitely do some damage.
Planted too deep. I have never heard that Acer Palmatums like wet feet. In fact, exactly the opposite and I collect them.
Your poor Japanese maple has been turned into a ball..thats whats the matter
The background music makes it difficult to understand what's being said. 🤨
Thank you for the information I feel like I’ve learned something useful 👍🏻
old wet feet number one cause of dieing maples they prefer dryer roots.,
An i don't have hangouts on it
“This is a maple they are hardy” lol talking about a Japanese maple... I cringed.
@@alexwood9941 yeah when he said they like swampy and wet feet I was like bruh 😭😭
I have a very large maple and nearly every branch has bark that looks scrunched where the branches fork. Is this bad? Will the limbs break?
I thought the beginning of this video was an ad for manscaped
Nice work guys.
Four people in the field & not one of you has a probing instrument &/or tiny saw to gently cut into or replace that one root (which, alone, is not likely the cause of the problem)? No mention of root examination or excavation using an air tool around the entire stem or ball? No mention or analysis of volcano mulching or over watering in the past or present? CZcams universe, special place for very special people!
How is that tree getting along now? Thanks.
Totally dead.
@@tylerwaxman7512 thanks!
@@tylerwaxman7512 It looked to me like rot of some sort. It’s a shame that this trees canopy wasn’t opened up Japanese style to allow sunlight and air circulation in previous years. No air and no sunlight leads to dead branches.
@@tylerwaxman7512 such a shame - i have same tree and a large dead branch on the inside... i dont really know if i should cut it back or not and when to do this , winter? autumn?
why place music randomly?
who in the holy hell mangled that beautiful tree?
Its a shade plant. It needed to be moved from the direct light.
This is like the third time I've seen you bitching in the comments on videos about japanese maples. Stop being a miserable Karen.
CLYDE FROG how original of you
Why the music? Very annoying.
Japanese maples want survive with wet feet they have to get moist an dry out before being watered again . Excess watering kills these trees
Thank you.
I like turtles!
How to demand/purchace Japanese Maple?
Music is terrible!
Does it mean it's safe to loosen the rootball (shaking) before transplanting it from a pot to the ground? Thank you
Just don’t plant it to deep into the ground. Just a little over the roots.
Where's part 2 or the outcome of this decision?
This tree continued to decline and a replant was the best scenario for this customer
Hi.my maple tree total died how can I bring into life?
Without seeing a picture of it couldn't say number one reason they die is to much water or not pot holding water moisture is good wet isn't
Why am I hearing big hit entertainment intro music lol. BTS fan maybe?? 💜
Can someone help I moved my Japanese maple tree will it die
I’m no expert but after moving a plant you should give it water. I don’t know if you will read this but how big is the tree
Ok what I’m trying to say is sometimes they just need to get used to new soil. And water helps after moving because of the new dry soil.
mine just shrivled up and became mushy and died for no reason
They lose their leaves if it's too hot. They do that as a defense mechanism so the tree might be alive. I hope you didn't get rid of it.. It will grow its leaves back the next year. Move it to a shady area.
@@Adam-Bomber thank you for the advice i will do this
Will Mezz not sure where u are but I suggest drowning the space once or twice a week if it’s hot and adding mulch just don’t volcano the mulch but like a. Doom said plants are tough they just need some care/attention
Could I call you??
I wish mine would die! I hate these lousy trees. All they do is make a huge mess every spring with their seed & other crap that falls off of them. They suck!
