An important factor in the overall health of a tree involves root placement and depth, which makes proper planting of a tree critical over the long term. Other elements that have a big effect include proper attention to pruning, deep root watering, and fertilizing.
Planting a tree too close to your home or fence could lead to big problems. Avoid possible damage to your home's foundation, your sewage lines, or your fencing by paying close attention to the space requirements for any tree installation you have in mind.
If the trees on your property are suddenly demanding more time and attention than you’re able to provide, you may worry about whether they’ll be able to survive without your intervention. When you can’t afford to gamble, it’s always best to bring in a professional to take over.
It's important to realize that trees can be damaged by certain herbicides. If you're going to apply weed killers to your lawn, avoid any areas under the canopy of trees, as this can hurt and in some instances even kill the trees.
While some of the heartiest trees out there may be able to thrive without any real action on your part, other trees will require constant care. If your tree needs more attention than you can provide it, we’re always happy to help out.
