Tree health is more than just watering and fertilizing your tree. It's also about providing the exact nutrients that species of tree thrives on. Generic fertilizer is a good starting point, but for truly healthy trees, it takes a specialized fertilizing combination to achieve the strongest growth.
Tree health is preventative maintenance. It's the same reason we go to the doctor for an annual check-up. By catching issues before they become major problems, we are able to avoid massive hospital bills and major life upsets further down the road. The same is true in trees. Catching an illness before it becomes a full-blown problem is critical in keeping a tree alive. If an illness isn't caught in time, the entire tree may die. Worse, it may spread the illness - whether that's disease, fungus, or pest infestation - on to other trees on your property. Catching it early is truly the best way to keep all of your trees safe. Having a sick or dying tree on your property is a serious risk. Sick trees fall without warning, even in mild weather. If it's at home, that tree is a silent threat hanging over you and your loved ones every time you walk under it. If it's on your business property, that tree is a serious liability that might create a catastrophic lawsuit. Pests also love sick trees. Ants, termites, and even raccoons can take up residence in a tree that has started to rot. Worse, termites can migrate from sick trees on your property to your deck, your shed, and even your home itself. Termites cause hundreds of thousands of dollars in property damage every year. Don't be one of the many who suffer this calamity in the U.S. Termites can destroy the very home you've worked so hard to earn, all without a single word of warning. You can reduce your likelihood of getting them simply by removing their favorite habitats. Not sure if your trees are healthy or not? Here are some signs and symptoms to watch out for when examining your trees: - Dead branches - Burrows and holes in the trunk - Spongy wood that yields to pressure - Evidence of termites or ants - Rotting on the trunk - Fungi, mushroom, and mold growing on the tree.

If you've had a bad experience with a former tree service, you may know how detrimental a poor pruning job can be. Much of what our tree health experts work on is resolving the issues created by poor tree management. Pruning has to be done in a certain way to keep the tree healthy. Otherwise, the plant is exposed to diseases and pests that might impact its long-term growth. Tree fertilization is also a critical part of tree health. Not all trees need the same levels of nutrients. Fertilization is essential during tree planting and growth.
