Tree Health Elgin

The health of your trees decides the health of your entire property. An unhealthy tree can invite pests and diseases that will negatively impact the natural balance of your outdoor spaces. On the flip side, a healthy tree is a foundation of a healthy ecosystem. Strong roots hold the soil together. The limbs provide nests for birds and homes for squirrels. The shades provide rest and relaxation for all those who pass underneath.

You need those trees to be healthy. Sick or dying trees can pose a serious risk to anyone underneath. Whether you're having a family picnic or playing touch football after Thanksgiving, you never know when a tree limb will fall and injure someone. The best way to prevent this is to keep your trees in tip-top health.

Unfortunately, tree health isn't as simple as many first believe. It's not just about dumping water at the base and giving it fertilizer every spring. It's about knowing exactly what kind of nutrients your species of tree needs. It's also about knowing how well or poorly the ground around your tree roots drains away water. If the soil holds water well, you may be overwatering your trees and drowning their roots. If the soil drains water too quickly, your trees may be dying of thirst.

Sometimes, all your best efforts still can't save a tree. Pests and tree disease occasionally sweep through an area. If your trees are getting sick, make sure to reach out to us before it's too late. Having a dead or dying tree on your property is a major risk for catastrophe. Let us save the tree before it dies, and you'll be able to enjoy it for years to come.

Some of the common signs for tree disease include:
- early leaf drop
- leaf discoloration
- wilting limbs
- dying branches

If any of your trees are exhibiting these symptoms, be sure to get in touch today. There may still be time to make a full recovery. But you may never know if you don't let one of our professional arborists take a free evaluation of your tree health.

Some symptoms, though they appear catastrophic, may be a natural part of a tree's growth. Many trees shade out their lower limbs to provide more nutrients for higher limbs. If you're not sure, give us a call. Our office staff will be happy to guide you through a checklist of symptoms that you can examine yourself.

When it comes to tree care, you need to know more than just how much water a tree needs. It also requires a firm foundation in tree fertilization. Anyone can sprinkle some generic tree fertilizer around a trunk, but how will you know that fertilizer is giving your specific tree the kind of nutrients that it needs? This is where our tree doctors come in. Our certified arborists are experts at identifying exactly what each species of tree will need in your given soil. Give them a call today to ensure the lasting health of your trees.
