@LongLiveTrees This is everywhere in Chicagoland. I work throughout the 7 county area and this is ubiquitous. Educating the customer to know this is wrong and demand mulch is done correctly is what I think works but it takes a long time to spread the word.

@MarkFunnell6 @GleadlessVTrees In Chicagoland they are just starting. Usually the trees bloom so much the smell is overwhelming. Our Redbuds (Cercis canadensis) were the best I've seen in 31+ years.
