Oak tree leaking sap after the hurricane
We are in South Carolina. We got hit pretty hard by Hurricane Helena. Not long after our huge oak tree started leaking sap. We are thinking possibly damage from something? But truly we don’t know. Does anyone have any thoughts ?
Just to add we had one fall in 2020 in the back yard and crush a building. It was a very sick tree. It has black smelly sap and a lot of rotten roots and issues. We had a few others removed that were close to our house. We are a bit nervous about this one as well.
Picture of the sap. I’ll get a picture of the entire tree as well.

Yoshino cherry, what caused this
Tree is two years old, I planted it from a sapling and is now about 8 feet tall. I have never weed whacked around the area , just used lawn mower but this is new in the past week or two. What can I do to save it?

What is this
Hello! I have a magnolia tree that’s about 40 years old. I just noticed this today, and I thought it looked somewhat concerning. I don’t know anything about trees, though lol. If anyone could give some insight, it would be much appreciated. Thank you :)

Why Do Leaves Change Color?
Curious about what causes those stunning fall colors? In my latest video, I dive into the fascinating science behind the seasonal transformation of leaves! From the breakdown of chlorophyll to the role of pigments like carotenoids and anthocyanins, discover how and why leaves shift from green to vibrant reds, oranges, and yellows. If you’re interested in learning more, here’s the link: https://youtu.be/l9RGnvjlqt8

My silver linden had an interesting growth this year
It really gained some height with this one branch out the top.

Tree taken down by mini
Hi there! I am ignorant when it comes to trees and was hoping you could help me. Our town took down the parkway tree. A limb hit our house and then a big branch narrowly crushed a car. I guess my question is, can you tell based on the stump, if this tree was sick or anything of the like? Thank you so much for your expertise.

What Trees to plant in yard?
Hi
I have a 1 acre lot in (eastern Ontario, Canada) what used to be a beautiful bush. Now I’m surrounded by dead ash. I am looking for some suggestions for what to put in to bring back some shade and greenery.

Tree idea needed
I’m looking for a smaller tree that would be good for a front yard, native to PA with nice fall color. Drop me your best ideas. I want something that won’t completely block out the house
