Question
What finally kills the tree?
✓
Answer
The tree is finally killed by the uprooting of its roots.
When the roots, which had anchored it lying hidden in the earth for years, were dug out, the tree’s strength was exposed and this led to the death of the tree.
It dried up after it had been uprooted.
Only if the roots are pulled out and withered, the tree will die so it is not easy to kill a tree.
So the roots need to be pulled out of the earth, which they have used as an anchor.
The roots have to be tied with a rope and then pulled and snapped out of the earth.
The roots are the strength, source and the most sensitive part of the tree and they are hidden inside the earth for years.
Now to kill the tree, one has to scorch and choke the roots in the sunlight and air.
Once they are brown, hardened, twisted and withered the tree is dead and the effort to kill it is complete.
