Do shade trees have high blood pressure? Well, not exactly, but a high pressure does develop in the heart-wood of the trunks of some trees and fermented sap is forced out through wounds where branches have been cut off, through cracks in the trunk, or through a split at the crotch where two large branches unite. The liquid which is exuded is not the same as the sap which moves in the growing wood just beneath the bark. The “bleeding” of maple trees from wounds in early spring is a natural condition and is not the result of any disease.
