Tree Talk: Tips and Tricks for Tree Owners

When I purchased my new home in 2016, I knew almost nothing about tree care. To me, the two large oak trees in my front yard appeared healthy.

When a storm brought one of the trees down in my front yard, destroying my garden in the process and just missing my house, I discovered that the tree had been rotting from the inside out.
