The roots are covered by the leaves!!!
I don't have the time to rake them.... oh wait I live in an area
where almost everything is wooded, doesn't that mean all the wooded
area's AKA the forest, aren't their roots covered too?
I think I read in this group that is was bad to cover the roots of
a tree (I think it kills them or something).

What ever am I going to do?
There must be an Expert in this group that can help.
Thanks in advance!!! ;-)

Not Clark...


That's why we have forest fires. It keeps the leaves that cover the
roots from killing the trees.


Holy cow I'd never thought of that!
I'm off to the hardware store for some lamp oil and a lighter!!
I have to save the tree's!!!
So it turns out whomever started the California forest fires where just
doing the trees a favor, what a good citizen.
