Helpful Tree Care Resources for Local Homeowners
Effective tree care goes beyond following a set schedule. It requires a deep understanding of how trees respond to Des Moines' unique challenges, from harsh winters to summer storms and periods of drought. Trees' needs change as they mature, as seasons shift, and as new pests and diseases emerge in our area.
To help you navigate these complexities, we offer a variety of resources including seasonal tips, monthly blog articles, FAQs, fact sheets, and an informative email newsletter. Don't miss out - join our newsletter list today!
Seasonal Tips
Protecting Your Trees in the Cold Months
After ice or snow storms, inspect your trees for damage. Gently remove heavy snow from branches to prevent breakage, but avoid removing ice to prevent further harm. Contact us if you notice significant damage.
Winter is ideal for structural pruning on deciduous trees. With leaves gone, it's easier to see and improve the tree's structure by removing crossed or rubbing branches. Avoid pruning in freezing temperatures to prevent damage.
Protect young, newly planted trees and those with thin bark from winter sunscald and animal damage using tree wraps or guards. For trees vulnerable to deer browsing, use temporary fencing or deer repellents.
Don't overlook evergreens in winter. They can suffer from winter desiccation if they don't get enough water. On days when the ground isn't frozen, water your evergreens to keep them hydrated through the cold months.
