Arborist Consulting

Plant care, as offered by arborists, extends beyond traditional tree care to encompass a wider range of services aimed at ensuring the health and vitality of various types of plants within a landscape. This holistic approach to landscape management recognizes that the well-being of individual plants and trees contributes to the overall health of the environment. Here’s what plant care services by arborists typically involve:

1. Diagnosis and Treatment of Plant Diseases

Arborists are skilled in identifying symptoms of plant diseases and can provide effective treatment options. We use our knowledge of pathology to diagnose issues and recommend treatments, which may include fungicides, systemic injections, or cultural practices to mitigate disease spread.

2. Pest Management

Effective pest management is crucial to plant health. Our Arborists can identify harmful pests and implement strategies to control them, using an integrated pest management (IPM) approach. This may involve chemical treatments, biological controls, or physical interventions to keep pest populations in check while minimizing environmental impact.

3. Soil Care

Healthy soil is the foundation of healthy plant life. Our Arborists can assess soil conditions and recommend amendments to improve soil health, such as adding organic matter or correcting pH imbalances. We may also advise on proper irrigation techniques to ensure plants receive the right amount of water.

4. Nutrition and Fertilization

Our Arborists will recommend and apply appropriate fertilizers to meet the specific nutritional needs of plants. We can also develop fertilization schedules based on the plant species, soil conditions, and the plant’s life cycle stages, ensuring optimal growth and health.
