Franklin's Heavy Clay Soil Is Why Saturated Trees Tip Over in Wind

Post Copy

Why do Franklin trees tip over roots and all?

Our clay soil holds water, loses its grip when saturated, and shallow limestone keeps roots spread wide instead of deep.

Watch for heaving soil, a new lean, or standing water at the base. Link in bio for a risk assessment.

A real photo of an uprooted tree with the full root plate exposed from a Franklin Tree Service job, showing the shallow spread of the roots in clay soil. A photo of heaved soil at the base of a leaning tree also works. Authentic job photos far outperform stock images.
