how does a tree deafy death?
Answers
Sometimes, sudden tree death causes include things you do yourself, like weed whacker damage. If you girdle the tree with a weed whacker, nutrients cannot move up the tree and it will die. Another human-caused problem for trees is excess mulch. ... Drought leads to tree stress.
The tree defies death by recovering even after attempts have been made to kill it.
The question is from the poem “On Killing a Tree” by Gieve Patel. The poet gives two examples of how the tree defies death. The poet says that ‘a simple jab of the knife’ is not capable enough to kill a tree because the tree will fight back.
Secondly, one can even try to 'hack and chop' it, but that too won't work either. The tree can bear a lot more pain than this. The bark that has been hurt will 'heal' and small green twigs will start growing from the base of the tree. This new growth can go on to become branches and get the tree back to its 'former size'.
It is rather difficult to get to the roots of the tree to kill it, and so the tree defies death.
