The Bark
Deer LOVE to eat the bark from a sap tree....the tree that gives maple honey.
A maple tree can be debarked by cutting into the bark of the tree and then peeling or stripping it away. This is hard on a tree and should only be done when necessary.
Bark is the outer layer of the living tissue of the tree. As the living layer grows it pushes the bark layer to the outside, which stretches and cracks the bark. Bark protects the tree from things that would harm the living tissue of the tree. Dangers include pests such as beetles and termites, and the heat from fires. Bark also slows the evaporation from the living tissues that would make the sap too thick to travel down to the roots. Without bark, many trees could not survive in the hot, cold, pest infested areas that they live in.

One should examine a Japanese Maple tree carefully before selecting it. Check the leaves, the bark, the roots and the color to make sure the tree is healthy.
To take cuttings of a smoke tree, first wait until the summer months before damaging the bark of the tree. Then, cut sections of the bark and branches that are about four to six inches in length.

The layer under the bark carries the nutrients to the tree so if this is stopped the tree will die. The layer under the bark carries the sap to the rest of the tree if this is disturbed the tree will die.
The five layers of a tree are: 1. The first layer is the bark. The bark protects the other layers. 2. If you rip off the bark of a tree, you will find the phloem layer. 3. After the phloem layer is the vascular cambium, which allows the tree to make a new bark after spring comes. This also includes the xylem tubes. 4. The sapwood layer stores the sugar the trees leaves make. Also, you get maple syrup from the sapwood of a maple tree. 5. The heartwood layer is dead xylem the tree had made past springs. The heartwood layer makes the tree steady, so the tree wont topple over too easily.
