Water Distribution<\/h1>\n\n\n\n

The first question you want to ask yourself involves the amount of water your tree is getting. Is it getting too much? Is it not getting enough? Both of these scenarios will causes adverse changes in your landscaping trees. Trees require deep watering, especially in hotter temperatures. Strive toward saturating the ground with water, starting at the trunk and finishing at the outer perimeter of the tree\u2019s dripline. This should suffice until the tree roots are dry again.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Pest and Insect Control<\/h1>\n\n\n\n

Once you have addressed any water management issues, it is time to ask yourself about pest and insect control for your trees. Beetles, borers, mites, wildlife, and even tree diseases can quickly affect the health of a tree in the worst way. For instance, leaf-eating insects inhibit the tree\u2019s ability to carry on the process of photosynthesis, thus rendering the tree sick and weak. It requires a professional arborist to positively identify, diagnose, and treat insect infestations and tree diseases. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Nutrients<\/h1>\n\n\n\n

Trees don\u2019t just thrive on water and sunlight alone. They also require a sufficient amount of nutrients, or tree food, for optimal growth and survival. Trees source their nutrients from the surrounding and underlying soil. Which means poor or inadequate soil conditions can cause adverse changes in a tree. If you suspect that your tree is suffering from a lack of nutrients, try fertilizing it to regain its strength and stability.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Additional Causes Include:<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

\u2022\tToo much mulching
\n\u2022\tImproper species-to-site location
\n\u2022\tInvasive sprinkler systems
\n\u2022\tInclement environmental conditions
\n\u2022\tOvergrown grass around trunk
\n\u2022\tAnd more<\/p>\n\n\n\n
