G. you just sprayed the shoots directly as they popped up? or you broke them off and sprayed the tiny stumps.


i think landscapers should REALLY know trees before they go and release the kraken on some trusting homeowner. i talked to a city tree guy, he said his predecessor made a big error choosing the Liquid Amber tree to plant. he wanted fast growing, check. shade, check! what he also got was SHALLOW ROOTS which jacked up home foundations and sidewalks. and the tree drops a golfball sized nut that is studded with sharp points. talk about ankle biters.

my neighbor across the street has three city trees lining his jacked up sidewalk. he called the city to ask if the city would trim them back - and they sent him a free permit to remove the trees the next day!! he callled back and asked, "but arent they city trees?" the lady said, yes technically, but if they wanted they could remove them. haha..like $3000 worth of work.

some trees are brutal.
