Trees can often be taken for approved however extreme weather condition can take its toll. It is very important to keep trees healthy and try to prevent diseases or weather damage.
Among the very first things you can do is learn more about the trees you want to care for and their specific requirements. If you’re unsure about the kind of tree you have, there are lots of resources online to assist you, such as the Forestry Commission Tree Name Trail. When looking into trees, the main things to watch out for are:

Safeguard the roots.
Concentrate on the zone around a tree approximately where the branches extend. Roots can extend beyond this zone however this is the area where roots are more delicate. The secret is to make sure that the soil is not too compact so that roots can keep absorbing water and oxygen.
Safeguard the bark.
Consider the bark as an armour that protects the tree. Securing the tree bark will prevent infections, diseases or insect activity. Watch out for possible threats that might harm tree bark, including:.
- Vehicles: trees near roadways or driveways can suffer hits from high vehicles. Get rid of lower branches to avoid damage and ensure trees are visible in the evening.
- Lawn sprinklers: a spray of water that over and over again hits bark at the exact same location can cause damage. If you utilize sprinklers to water your yard, ensure these don’t directly hit trees.
- Branches: branches rubbing against each other can trigger damage to the bark. Prune branches properly so branches don’t get laced.
- Yard equipment: don; t get yard equipment near to the tree trunks as this can cause major damage to the bark.
Water effectively.
Trees normally thrive well in existing moisture conditions and do not require any additional watering. However, depending on your regional environment, you might need to water your trees during extended periods of drought. If you do need to water trees in the summer, a periodic deep watering is preferred to a frequent misting. In winter season trees shouldn’t need any watering.
Prune effectively.
We’ve formerly blogged about pruning trees as it’s an important part of tree maintenance. It’s something you can do yourself if you know exactly what you are doing, otherwise you can constantly work with a professional. The main things to watch out for are:.
- Crossing branches: eliminate the smaller sized branch so the more powerful one can grow without being damaged.
- Broken and dead branches: a clean cut will assist the tree recover.
Low branches: eliminate branches that are low and are vulnerable to damage (i.e. by an impact). You can also eliminate low branches for aesthetic functions.
Keep soil healthy.
There are 2 methods you can ensure that the soil around your tree is rich in nutrients.
- Usage mulch. Spread a layer of mulch around your tree, about 2 to 4 inches thick. The mulch does not need to touch the trunk.
- Plant grass or some type of ground cover. Dead plant product will decay in the ground and enhance the soil. Make sure your plants can prosper in the shade and that their roots don’t compete with the tree.
