Bradford Pear has offshoots all over
I have a Bradford Pear tree in my front yard. All around the tree there
are little sprouts popping up from the roots. I have tried cutting them back but they just come back thicker. I have tried covering up the roots more but that doesn't help. Is there anything I can do to stop these things? I am at the point of considering just cutting down the tree and planting something else. |

I do run the lawnmower over the ones in the grass but most of them are
in the mulch around the tree. I can't mow those. And besides, they grow much faster than the grass so they look ugly.
