I had bad wind burn on some young Colorado Blue Spruce 160 to be exact. Watching a show encouraged me to allow nature to go ahead. I allowed the grass to grow thinking to protect from our terrible winds. I got an explosion of meadow voles lived in the base of all but 17 trees & they were 3 year olds by then. Gone, girdled around. Broke my heart. the neighbour dog did in the rest. I planted at that same time a few Siberian Larch mowed about them & they are 8 ft now. Whine cry weep.

Only 3 months until spring now. The good news is I can usually put an apple in May 15 or so. Then I can meet your challenge. You must understand please we have 8 months of winter here on a good year. Sometimes it seems to give a lot of summer a skip in August & back to winter. I haven't forgot Christian! It was -35 C yesterday & -30 this morn & wind chill. I'm thinking of a Burr Oak. Tossdart

I like the idea of a compost pile around the trees. Dont forget your egg shells, coffee grounds, tea too !

Doesn't all that compost piled around the tree attract mice that would live in the compost and then chew the bark of the living tree?

nah, not at all, it compacts over time and the watering would deter them, they're here but in other places, lol
