Covering soft maple roots can potentially harm the tree, as it may suffocate the roots and limit their access to oxygen and nutrients. Additionally, excessive soil covering can lead to moisture retention, increasing the risk of root rot. However, a shallow layer of mulch can be beneficial for moisture retention and temperature regulation. It's important to avoid excessive depth when covering roots to protect the tree's health.
