Did you know that root rot can affect trees and plants outside? Typically, we tend to think that root rot only happens to inside plants, but it can affect outdoor trees and shrubbery, also. Root rot is a condition in your plants or trees where the roots being to rot. This is due to inadequate drainage, plus overwatering. When there is nowhere for the water to go, the water can cause roots to become soggy. This can prevent it from getting sufficient oxygen in order to survive.

When the plant or tree has been overwatered it can cause the roots to become too mushy. This is bad news as the roots are unable to absorb needed nutrients in order to thrive. With a nutrient deficiency, plus lack of oxygen, root rot symptoms begin to take place. Signs of root rot include a thinning canopy, leaves turning yellow and brown, then begin to wilt, or leaves becoming pale and small.
There isn’t a way to tell if its root rot without digging up the ground to the roots. Our certified arborists can diagnose your tree or plant by digging up the ground where the roots are. Healthy roots are white and firm, so if there is an abundance of soft, brown roots, it might be too late for that particular tree or plant.
