I have a white Spruce in the back of my yard. Nice tree about 35' tall that provides some shade on the west side of the house. About 3 or 4 years ago I rolled a junk 16.9 x 24 tire and rim back there to lean it against the tree out of the way. (See, it's tractor related) The tire got away from me, fell over and the tube burst letting most of the 55 gallons of calcium spill out on the roots of the Spruce. Within a few months the tree started dying and I figured I had killed it. It lost about 30% of it's needles. But now, it's still alive, does put new growth in the areas that didn't die off. I will be removing some other trees here in the yard next spring or summer to make room for a new garage. That would be the time to take out the Spruce if I'm going to. It will be much harder to take it down once the garage is up. I hate to lose it though. Is there anything I can do to help it along? I kick myself for damaging it but sometimes stuff just happens. Any advice - not for the dumb tire man but for the tree. Thanks
