Root Suckers & Tree Stump Sprouts

After a tree has been cut down or damaged by a storm, the issue of "root suckers and stump sprouts" can occur; this refers to the growth of new shoots from the tree stump or tree roots. This phenomenon occurs in nearly two dozen known tree varieties common in the southeast.

Unlike saplings, which are seedlings produced by many trees, the problem of stump sprouts and root suckers is a tree's natural response to defend itself against tree removal, weather damage, disease, or even old age.

Certain tree species, such as Maples, Conifers, Holly, Crape Myrtles, Willows, Beech, and Ash, exhibit a notable capacity for generating new growth by storing nutrients within their roots. They leverage this characteristic as a mechanism to ensure their survival.

These tree-like shoots can sprout from the stump of the tree trunk or anywhere along the tree's root system, which can extend a considerable distance from the tree stump. Suckering can have a negative impact on your property. If not adequately attended to, these sprouts and suckers will develop into the next generation of unwelcome tree growth, which will need to be addressed eventually.

Stump Blaster grinding is one of the most affordable and comprehensive ways to address unwanted suckering and sprouting. It involves grinding out the tree stump and removing more significant portions of its supporting root system to greatly minimize, if not destroy, the tree's suckering ability.
