Surface tree roots growing next to water in Ullswater.There are several reasons for surface tree roots. Some species, like maples, are simply more prone to this than others. Older trees showing roots is common too. However, this most often happens when there’s little topsoil in the area.
A tree’s feeder roots are normally found within the uppermost portion of the ground, about 8 to 12 inches, while those responsible for anchoring and supporting the tree run much deeper. These shallow feeder root systems make the tree more susceptible to falling over from strong winds. As the tree grows, so do the feeder roots. This is why some of the older trees you see have exposed roots.
