About this listen

Dense clay stops roots from spreading out. Instead of growing deep and wide like they should, roots end up growing in circles near the surface. This makes trees wobbly and more likely to fall over during storms.

Shallow roots also mean trees can't reach water when it's dry. The same clay that traps water during rainy times becomes impossible to dig through when it dries out.

Tree trimming services in North Carolina see this stuff all the time. Stressed trees need more work and can be dangerous.
