Root Flare

Root flare is the area at the base of a tree where the trunk transitions into the roots. It is where the tree flares out at ground level, providing structural stability. A properly exposed root flare is important for tree health, as burying it too deeply can lead to rot, girdling roots, and other issues. Root flare visibility is a key indicator of proper planting depth and overall tree health.
