Winter Tree Care Tips from Arbor Day Foundation
- Inspect for damage:Bare branches make it easier to spot broken limbs, cracks or signs of disease.
- Clean up the base:Clear away fallen leaves,dead branches, and mulch piled too high. A tidy base helps prevent pests, mold and rot.
- Prune with purpose:Winter is a prime time for structural pruning. Without leaves in the way, you can shape wisely and support long term growth.
- Protect your trees: Use trunk guards of fencing to prevent critter damage.
- Watch the salt: Deicing salts can damage roots and soil. Use tree friendly options or create barriers to block runoff.
- Water during dry spells: If your winter’s been mild and dry, give trees a deep drink on warmer days to keep roots moist, even when dormant.
