Seasonal Plant Care Tips
Proper care throughout the year is vital for keeping your trees and plants healthy and resilient. Each season brings unique challenges and opportunities to support your landscape’s growth and vitality. Here are some essential tips from our certified arborist to help you care for your plants year-round:
Spring: Prepare for Growth
Spring is a time of renewal and rapid growth. Use this season to inspect your trees and plants for any winter damage and to remove dead or broken branches. Fertilize your soil to provide essential nutrients that support new leaves and buds. This is also a great time to start pest and disease monitoring early, so problems can be caught before they spread.
Summer: Maintain Hydration and Monitor Health
As temperatures rise, adequate watering becomes crucial. Deep, infrequent watering helps develop strong root systems and prevents stress during dry spells. Keep an eye out for signs of heat stress, such as wilting or leaf scorch. Summer is also when many pests are most active, so stay vigilant and consider professional pest control if needed.
Fall: Prepare for Dormancy
Fall is the ideal season to prune your trees and shrubs. Removing weak or diseased branches helps reduce the risk of damage during winter storms and promotes healthy growth in the spring. This is also the perfect time to apply a slow-release fertilizer to strengthen roots and improve soil quality over the winter months.
Winter: Protect and Assess
During dormancy, trees and plants need minimal care but benefit from protection against harsh weather. Mulching around the base helps insulate roots and retain moisture. Winter is also a good time to assess tree health and plan for any treatments or pruning needed once spring arrives.
