Contributors typically want to know about a tree's planting depth and width, potential pests and stresses, pruning and watering schedules, and treatment options.

of course it does, but not more than any other carbon fuel. Be sure your flue is open or your house will fill with smoke.
walnuts, of course. what they mean by that is they produce walnuts. Walnut trees produce generally in the light spring or the mid fall. The walnuts they do produce happen to be large in size often. Walnut trees produce by generating small walnut seeds in the early spring that follow into the summer. By mid fall, the walnuts have sprouted & become the fruit the tree is known for.
What side of the tree does moss grow on?
Yes, moss does begins a very, very large part of its life cycle only on the north side of trees in the US. However, after a very, very long time that the moss has established itself, I'm talking decades here, then the moss will take over the south side too. But not initially and it rarely lasts that long to take over both sides of a tree. It generally will perish first.
Moss grows on all sides of trees. It grows thickest on the north side because the north side doesn't get as much direct sunlight (If it gets any at all) And moss generally grows better in shaded areas.
If this is true that moss grows thickest on the north side of the tree, in the southern hemisphere the moss should then grow on the south side of the tree as the sun should pretty much always face the north side of the tree on trees below the equator.

How do you prune a weeping cherry tree?
It depends on the look you want. You always trim the tree from the bottom of the tree. To make it look like an umbrella which is trimmed high, or a mushroom which is evened at the lowest point. You should always keep the strongest central "leader". This will be the support for the weeping limps when it is mature. The "mushroom look" will cause scars and will make the tree look unnatural. The idea behind the weeping cherry tree is to look as naturally beautiful as possible. You decide which direction the tree grows during its pruning, just make sure you pick a good strong leader. See the related link below.
Can you grow a cherry blossom tree in Florida?
The answer depends partly on the region of Florida, since its climate varies considerably from north to south. In north Florida, many flowering cherry varieties will likely be successful. They might not grow as vigorously as further north though. In central and south Florida most common flowering cherries will have a hard time. Some exceptions include black cherry (Prunus serotina) which is native to parts of the state. Also the Taiwan cherry (Prunus campanulata) will do well in most of Florida.
Yes i believe so. I've seen cherry blossoms being sold in Florida so i believe they can grow here.
There is a Museum/Garden in West Palm Beach that grows them.

Answer:
Because trees are so important to our everyday life (buildings to paper), it is not surprising that we have a stronger connection to tree than almost every other plant. While the death of a flower may go unnoticed, a dying tree is something we find to be alarming and sad. The sad fact is that if you look at a tree and are forced to ask yourself "what does a dying tree look like?" chances are, that tree is dying.
Signs that a tree is dyingThe signs that a tree is dying are many and they differ greatly. One sure sign is a lack of leaves or a reduction in the number of leaves produced on all or part of the tree. Other signs of a sick tree include the bark becoming brittle and falling off the tree, limbs dying and falling off or the truck becoming spongy or brittle.What causes a dying tree?While most trees are hardy for decades or even centuries, they can be affected by tree diseases, insects, fungus and even old age.Tree diseases vary from species to species, as do the types of insects and fungus that can hurt various types of trees.
Much like animals, the mature size of the tree generally determines how long the lifespan of a tree is. Smaller ornamental trees will typically only live for 15 - 20 years, while maples can live 75 - 100 years. Oaks and pine trees can live up to 2 -3 centuries. Some trees, like Douglas Firs and Giant Sequoias, can live a millennia or two. A dying tree that is dying from old age cannot be helped.
What to do for a sick treeIf your tree has you asking what does a dying tree look like and is my tree dying, the best thing you can do is call an arborist or a tree doctor. These are people who specialize in diagnosing tree diseases and can help a sick tree get better.A tree doctor will be able to tell you if what you are seeing on a tree is signs that a tree is dying. If the problem is treatable, they will also be able to help your dying tree get well again. It may cost a little money, but considering how long it can take to replace a mature tree, this is only a small price to pay.
