A checklist for maintaining healthy trees and shrubs though the summertime | Hamden, CT

Tree and Shrub Installation - Hamden, CTShrub and Tree installations are investments that enhance your Connecticut property, and create a positive first impression of beauty, and curb appeal. Healthy trees increase in value with age, purifying our air, and saving energy by providing shade and protection from strong winds. On the other hand, poorly-maintained trees can be a significant hazard and liability.

Please review the following checklist to ensure that your trees and shrubs will be healthy through the summer seasons.

  1. Inspect trees and shrubs: Before leaves appear, inspect tree trunks and branches, looking for signs of disease or damage. You can contact Affordable Landscape and Tree to learn about inspecting trees and what to look for when identifying potential health hazards for your trees.
  2. Prune dead branches: The ideal time to prune most trees is during the winter time. Remove any dead, damaged or broken branches that appear on the tree.
  3. Mulch your landscape: A layer of mulch helps soil retain moisture and suppresses weeds. It’s most crucial when caring for younger trees, ones that have been in the ground up to 10 years.
  4. Combat Pests & Diseases: You can contact a licensed arborist to learn which pests and diseases pose the most serious threat to your trees – and how to best treat them. New problems develop yearly, and older foes are often defeated.
