I sat in on a great presentation about proper pruning technique last week at a local tree care conference. Of course, in order to understand proper pruning, you first need to understand how and why trees grow the way they grow. Without getting too heavy into science and technical terms, let’s just say that “apical dominance” is what makes a tree grow upward, and “secondary growth” is responsible for new tissue growing outward.

Drought Conditions Call for Winter Watering We don’t tend to think about trees too often in the dead of winter, but we should! We have had three consecutive years of drought-like conditions and this takes its toll on trees, especially evergreens which lose moisture to the air even in winter, and shallow rooted ornamentals. Between fall of 2021 and spring of 2022 we saw an unprecedented number of trees and shrubs die due to a lack of water. DIY WATERING INSTRUCTIONS When temperatures rise above 40 degrees, turn your hose on at a half-trickle and place it at the trunk. Move the hose every ..read more
