My builder uses Houzz Pro to plan the timeline and give detailed estimates and daily updates with photos of progress, and provide invoices at pre-agreed key points in the build. This made the whole experience much more efficient and stress-free.

Japanese Maple Bark Damage

12 years ago

I planted my Japanese Maple too deep and as a result the trunk bark started to peel away (see image). I've successfully raised the tree and it's now planted properly. However, is the trunk's bark damage so bad that the tree is doomed? Will it live?
