Maintaining healthy trees involves regular inspections, proper watering, mulching, and pruning. Monitor for signs of disease or pest infestations. Fertilizing in the spring and protecting against harsh winter conditions helps to keep trees healthy year-round.
Are there any specific signs to look for that indicate a tree may be diseased or at risk of falling?
