Red clay plus years of foot traffic equals roots that can't breathe.
Compacted soil sheds water and starves roots of oxygen. The signs show up slowly: a thinning canopy, small leaves, more deadwood each year.
Fall is a strong window for soil care, while roots are still growing and summer stress is over. Want an arborist to look at what's under your tree? Link in bio.

A real photo from a Boutte Tree plant health care visit showing soil work around the base of a mature tree (soil sampling, root zone loosening, or fresh organic matter spread under the canopy), or a tree beside a heavily trafficked path or driveway. Authentic job photos strongly outperform stock images.
