- Water goes a long way! Let those blossoming buds know you care by using proper watering methods.
- Make sure the water you use is clean and not contaminated or stagnant.
- Overwatering your trees or plants can cause root rot and a myriad of other diseases. Don’t be a victim of this frequently overlooked procedure. Check out this site to find out the details on proper watering techniques!
- Be aware of soil moisture. The soil will absorb and store moisture for plants and organisms to use for sustenance and growth. By carefully monitoring moisture characteristics in your plant’s soil, you can ensure the health of your tree or plant.
- Have you ever dreamed of being a doctor? Well, now’s your chance! Trees and shrubs are susceptible to many different diseases which can cripple and destroy them, if not caught early. The more familiar you are with the diseases your vegetation could face, the more successful and bountiful they will be. Here is an excellent resource to assist you in determining what type of disease your trees and shrubs could be subjected too.
- Trees need a trim just like us! By pruning and trimming away dead parts of trees and shrubs, you can easily maintain a comfortable and healthy outdoor environment. Pruning and trimming are especially crucial to keeping your home and surroundings safe during harsh bouts of weather. The fewer dead or damaged branches in your foliage, the lower the chances for that debris to get airborne and cause harm. If you happen to come across a tree which has colored flagging tape (such as this) around its trunk, be aware, as this could mean the tree is slated for removal and is a hazard to the public.
