Ask Burton: This week, a question about suckers – not in Vegas, but in the landscape. Q: I have a Live Oak in my yard that has generated so many suckers that it almost looks like a ground cover. How can I remove them, and prevent more? Is there any sort of herbicide I can apply?September 18, 2018
Ask Burton: Q: I have two live oaks in my front yard that were planted 6 years ago. When they were planted, they were both three-inch diameter trees. One has grown robustly, it’s somewhere between seven and eight inches through the trunk now. My other live oak might have grown half as much and doesn’t look nearly as good. The trees are getting the same water, fertilizer, and light. Can you tell me why this one is having a problem growing?September 19, 2017
