Core: Sorry I wasn't clear. They are just leaving the dirt there until they move it in about....3 weeks? They are saving it for a planter that will be against the pool sides, so can't move it yet.

I've heard you can kill a tree by just cutting a ring all around the tree at the ground level, so I was afraid the dirt might do something similar and it might die. This tree was stressed while we remodeled the house because we moved out and it didn't have the water from the septic tank that it normally had. The next year it barely had a canopy of leaves, so I hired a tree guy to give it feedings, etc. So...I'm really watching out for it now! :)

Thanks for the info! This is the tree that's being covered at the roots.
