    Should I replace this tree?

    Hmm strange it's been doing fine all summer no signs of being underwatered and my grass is definitely not overwatered I'm pretty OCD about making sure I do deep infrequent watering on my Kentucky blue grass but in Idaho heat it definitely requires a lot of water. In the peak of summer I had my...

    Should I replace this tree?

    What do you fellas think about the tree getting 40 mins of sprinkler water every 2 days. One of the sprinklers hits the tree not with tremendous force but the bark and trunk definitely get wet. I have it set for early morning and she gets direct sun all day and it's mostly dry heat 95-100...

    Should I replace this tree?

    Got ya I'll extend it. Okay sounds good I'll keep it. My next battle is the sprinklers. I run them 30 minutes once every 2 days and the tree is in direct path of one fairly close about 3 feet away and a couple others a good distance but still spray water onto the trunk. I'll probably have to...

    That's what I was thinking. What is the bend a sign of? Not comfortable enough to grow properly?? Soil too compacted or rocky? The tree it self doesn't look unhealthy but the bend in the trunk is definitely an ugly sight. Replaced with mulch. :)

    Should I replace this tree?

    Really rocks eh? I mostly see rocks being applied to garden beds and around trees here in the treasure valley but I can absolutely switch to mulch. My whole garden and various areas around the lawn is themed with landscape rocks you don't think this would look odd do you ?

    Should I replace this tree?

    Came with the house I believe it's a redspire flowering pear. It's always had a bend a few inches up from the bottom of the trunk and it doesn't seem to be getting any better. I'd say it's about a year old. I live in the Treasure Valley area of Idaho and wind gusts can get pretty high some days...
