Because only a sapling can grow.
Girdling is the process of stripping bark from around the trunk of the tree after time,the tree died.
Girdling disrupts the flow of nutrients and water from the roots to the leaves, leading to starvation and dehydration in the upper parts of the tree. Without these essential resources, the tree eventually dies due to the inability to support its metabolic functions.
To kill a standing tree, you can cut a ring around its trunk (a process known as girdling) to disrupt the flow of nutrients and water from roots to the rest of the tree. This essentially starves the tree and causes it to eventually die.
A cut through the inner layer of bark, and passes all the way around the trunk of the tree is called girdling. This was a common method to kill trees in the early days of the US, when settlers were clearing land. The tree above the cut is now effectively dead. It may sprout from the stump, but everything above the girdling is gone.
Your tree has roots. You plant the roots. They are at the bottom of the trunk. There is a place on the tree trunk where the roots leave the tree trunk. Above that point, the trunk begins getting smaller until it gets to the same size as the rest of the trunk. The basal flare is the part of the trunk where the trunk starts getting larger just before the roots start leaving the tree. If you can not see the basal flare when you plant the tree, you planted it too deep and you killed the tree.
One way to effectively eliminate a tree without cutting it down is through a process called girdling. Girdling involves removing a strip of bark around the circumference of the tree, which disrupts the flow of nutrients and water, eventually causing the tree to die.
Bark covers a tree trunk.
The trunk of a tree is called a 'bole'.
Tree trunk is a compound word
the outer part of a tree trunk

Cellulose makes the trunk of a tree sturdy.
