Spring: The arrival of spring signals new growth for your trees, making it a critical time for assessing their health and addressing any issues that may have arisen over the winter months. This is the ideal time for tree trimming, as it allows for new growth to establish itself without the threat of summer heat stressing the tree. Additionally, spring is a great time to check for signs of disease or pest infestations and take preventative measures to protect your trees.
Summer: With the hot and dry conditions of summer, proper watering is essential to the health of your trees. Deep and infrequent watering is recommended to encourage deep root growth and drought tolerance. Mulching around the base of your trees can also help retain moisture and regulate soil temperature. Regularly inspecting your trees for signs of stress, such as wilting leaves or early leaf drop, can help you catch and address issues before they escalate.
Fall: As the leaves begin to change color and fall, it is important to prepare your trees for the winter months ahead. Proper tree pruning in the fall can help improve the overall health and structure of your trees, as well as reduce the risk of storm damage from weak or overgrown branches. Fall is also a good time to fertilize your trees, providing them with the nutrients they need to survive the winter and thrive in the spring.
Winter: While many tree care tasks may slow down in the winter months, there are still important steps you can take to care for your trees. Regularly inspecting your trees for signs of winter damage, such as broken branches or frost cracks, can help you address issues before they worsen. Properly wrapping young or vulnerable trees in burlap can also protect them from harsh winter weather and prevent winter burn.
