One of the most common issues we see in our area is soil that lacks the nutrients needed to sustain trees. Inadequate soil conditions make it difficult for trees to grow and withstand stressors including insects, disease, and the unpredictable weather of winter.

With this in mind, we believe fertilization is the single most important proactive measure you can take in caring for your trees this season. Soil care and fertilization in the fall dramatically improve growing conditions and provide the nutrients required for vital tree root development.

To determine precisely what is needed to help your trees thrive through winter and into the next growing season, call our Brewster office or contact us online for a soil analysis.

Warning Signs of a Tree Health Issue:
Especially with the hot weather of summer, it’s important to note any changes in your trees in August. Trees under stress display key symptoms indicating that a serious problem may exist or could develop if ignored. Some things to look for:
wilting or unusual loss of leaves or needles;
yellowing of leaves or browning or reddening of needles;
premature autumn color and leaf drop;
wet, sappy spots on branches and stems.
These signs can be evidence of insects and disease or may indicate problems with the roots or soil. Correctly identifying the underlying cause is critical to addressing the problem and nurturing trees back to good health.
Given the challenging growing conditions typical of late summer, it is important to have your trees and shrubs checked before serious issues develop. For more information, please call the Brewster office at 914-920-3130 or contact us online for a complimentary consultation.

If you live in a place with hot, dry conditions, it only make sense to plant trees that can tolerate those conditions. Learn more about trees with drought-tolerant attributes:

In areas with persistent drought conditions, or those with a true dry season, select drought resistant and native species.
