Some moss is OK, too much will prevent easy watering of the tree (water rolls off the moss). If you want to keep the moss, keep it around the trunk, but clear the outer 2/3 of the surface of the soil. Personally, in summer I let the moss grow a little more, to act as a mulch so my (small) trees don't dry out too much. You need to find a happy medium... (not the paranormal sort)
