Rescuing an improperly planted tree

Roger and certified arborist Matt Foti showed how to improve the health of a tree that had too much soil and mulch covering it's root flare, suffocating the tree. They blasted the excess soil and mulch away using a device called an "air spade," which exposed the upper part of the tree's root flare, giving the tree better access to oxygen, water, and nutrients.
