Why would you prune a tree?Pruning a tree is for the tree’s health. Removing specific branches or stems can benefit the whole tree. Pruning stimulates new growth and removes any crossover branches that if not taken care of could eventually fuse together. Pruning is also recommended to remove any deadwood or branches in the canopy to prevent them from falling onto people or structures. Pruning stimulates new growth and removes any crossover branches that if not taken care of could eventually fuse together. Pruning is also recommended to remove any deadwood or branches in the canopy to prevent them from falling onto people or structures. Remove dead, damaged and diseased branches also helps prevent insect & decay organisms from entering the tree. Thinning a dense canopy on a tree will increase air and sunlight, resulting in fewer disease problems. A tree also needs to be pruned early in it’s development to make sure it’s structurally sound in the future. Many people think that young trees don’t require any pruning because the tree is young, but it’s the complete opposite. If you want to have a good tree in the future you want to start training it while it’s young removing cross branches and structuring the crown.

What’s the best time of the season to fertilize?Trees require nutrients to live and thrive. A fertilization program is used to maintain trees and shrubs in a vigorous condition and to increase their resistance to injury from diseases and insects. Most trees experience a single flush of growth during spring followed by slower growth throughout the summer and fall. Because of this single flush of growth, late winter or early spring is ideal. When the tree is getting ready to leaf out and grow, this is when you want the roots to absorb the good fertilizer and take it to the crown of the tree. The best indicator of whether fertilization is necessary is a soil test. Remember that plant nutrition is a balancing act and that too much fertilizer, as well as too little, can negatively affect the growth and well being of your trees and lawn. The correct amount will keep trees healthy and enhance landscape beauty.
