How can I build a tree ring without causing tree rot?

0

If you’re building a tree ring around an existing tree, it’s best not to build up soil or mulch higher than 2 inches near the trunk since tree roots growing near the soil surface require oxygen and are easily smothered. Instead of filling in the space within the ring with soil, you can fill it in with a dense groundcover, or plants such as hostas that thrive in the shade.
