Please help!! This is a very old huge hackberry tree that has shown up this year with a big split down the middle. When we bought our 5 acres 4 years ago, my husband positioned our new mobile home so this tree would be to the south of our built in back porch. Needless to say we love this tree and my husband wants to wrap or band it to try and keep it alive. I have not called in an arborist yet. Do any of you know whether or not there's a chance that a tree like this could still live? Or is doomed to die?
