RE: DO REDBUD TREES FIX NITROGEN IN THE SOIL?
Great post @papa-pepper and well discovered. Most legumes have to die to release the nitrogen from their nodules into the soil too . That type of tree will look beautiful anywhere - they are super pretty 🤗🌴🌈💚🦋
Well, much easier is to prune them. All/much of the nitrogen in the chemical.composition of the leaves and branches will have been sequestered, and now you have that decomposing in your compost or soil. The leaves that fall have 'free' nitrogen as well, it's actually an oxymoron but the 'free' (for us) nitrogen has been trapped.
Yeah, I was planning on killing them in about three years.
