Curing "Lawnmower Blight"
Crabapple LandscapExperts recommend the use of mulch rings (or hardscape edging and mulch) around the base of tender trunks of newly planted or young trees and tree-form shrubs. The mulch that surrounds the trunks keeps a physical distance between the trunks and lawnmowers, string trimmers and edgers. This provides a level of safety from equipment that can accidentally gouge holes or strip away bark, creating an entry point for insects and disease.
