What You Need To Know About Tree Care

Trees don't ask much from us, they even give more than what we deserve. Thus, the single best thing you can do for your trees is to be certain that you hire a professional tree care company when you need help.

There are a thousand tree core companies out there, and there is only one that would fit your needs. It can be tempting to hire the first tree care company you find. But by doing your homework, you can avoid scams, save money, and ensure that the work is done right the first time.  Here are some things a tree care company would recommend you to do:

·         Define its purpose.

Start by defining the purpose for your new tree. Common purposes include aesthetics, privacy, shade/energy reduction, windbreak, or street tree. Your end goal will impact the suitability of different trees. Next consider your planting site limitations. Make sure that your location and weather have a tremendous impact on what trees will grow.

·         Take care of it by staking.

Tree staking is never done with the intention of harming a tree. Staking is usually a part of professional tree care with a desire to promote root and trunk growth and protect a young tree from harm.  If and when the stakes are removed, the lack of trunk and root development makes these trees prime candidates for breakage or blow-down. In the first good windstorm, these trees come down. They have lost the supportive protection of natural development.

·         Green and balance.

Finding the balance between the results you desire and environmental sensibility can be the most difficult aspect of tree care. Make sure you know the type of materials currently used on your property and how they are applied. Blanket treatments using traditional materials are not nearly as eco-friendly as 100% organic and hybrid services that target specific problems as needed.

·         Ask a professional.

Be aware that the credentials of someone calling themselves an arborist or tree care expert can vary widely. A true tree care expert is a professional who cares for trees and other woody plants according to national standards and best practices.  This is done by working in a safe manner with the correct equipment.

We will never forget the role of fertilizers too. Fertilizing helps replenish nutrients that help trees and shrubs to sustain good health throughout the year. Make sure to ask for help.
