Arb-Ex tree spade helping to extend life of mature Oak tree

October 28, 2016

One of our arborists, Nathan, has been using an Arb-Ex tree spade to decompact the ground, using compressed air, around the roots of a mature Oak tree by Reed pond. This will help extend the life of the tree by improving air and water uptake.
