Tree Care and Trimming

It is naïve to think that all you have to do is dig a hole and plant a tree, and it will thrive. Perhaps that is the case at times but generally speaking a tree that flourishes is not one that has been neglected. Trees need tender, loving care. Tree care is essential, whether you live in San Antonio, Texas, or New York City or Miami, Florida.

Proper care and trimming of trees is something that needs to be done regularly. If you don’t have the time or desire to do it, or know that you aren’t skilled in this area, hire professional landscapers to maintain your trees for you.

Trees are an asset in more ways than one, including their beauty. Trees add tremendous curb appeal to your home and property. A house sitting on an empty, barren lot is not nearly as appealing as one surrounded by lush trees.

Professional tree trimmers know what they’re doing and how to do it effectively and safely. Trimming trees is a hazardous proposition for someone who isn’t familiar with the ins and outs of the business. Additionally, it puts the property owner at risk for a lawsuit if he hires someone who isn’t experienced and insured.

In addition to regular trimming of trees directional trimming needs to be undertaken. The amateur arborist may not be aware of the need for this type of trimming. When a tree is directionally trimmed or pruned, which is also called natural pruning, the characteristics of the tree, including its shape, expected growth rate and its present size are taken under consideration.

When a tree is properly pruned via directional pruning, it directs the tree away from facilities, such as electric wires that are beside the tree or over the tree.

When a tree is not habitually maintained it will keep its regular form, which means it may ultimately cross paths with dangerous power lines. When this happens, comprehensive pruning must be undertaken or the tree may even have to be removed.

Tree removal is a high-risk operation and should be left to the professionals.

Sometimes the removal of porition of a tree destroys the beauty of the tree. Bracing can be done in some circumstances, which keeps the tree intact and doesn’t destroy its aesthetic value.

Before the bracing cables are placed, pruning is undertaken to ease the weight in the branches. The cables provide support for the fragile limbs. Rods can be put in weak fork unions while the cables are normally placed higher in the crown.

Trees that grow in humid climates need to be de-mossed. Moss grows on trees in moist climates, and although it doesn’t damage the tree, some homeowners find it unattractive. The moss must be removed correctly, or else the process can damage the tree and potentially even kill it. A professional tree service can safely de-moss your trees for you.

Tree specialists also know when and how to deep feed trees. When mycorrhiza fungi is added to the soil around the trees this greatly benefits the tree. These fungi are microorganisms that encourage and institute mycorrhiza, which is a beneficial fungi found at the root of the tree, which actually, functions as though it were a part of the root system. The tree and fungi interact, which results in healthy roots and healthy trees. Pesticides, excavation and compaction can annihilate the mycorrhizae system and many, many year’s worth of soil development. Adding mycorrhizal fungi to the soil helps.

Professional landscapers clear the lot, remove stumps and haul off mulch and brush that are left in the aftermath. No one wants to come home to discover that they’re responsible for removing a tree stump or cleaning up debris.

Hiring a professional tree service to take care of your trees is a smart move and will improve the value of your home. You can enjoy the benefits as well, surrounded by lush, healthy trees.
