5 Tips to Prepare Your Trees for Winter

• As the winter season approaches closer,
  the trees get a head start on preparing for it.
  The leaves change their color and finally shed.
• When the trees get ready for the season, you
  must support them by doing a few activities so
  that they can face the harsh and cold winter.
• Dont know about it? This blog tells you about
  it.

1 Clean the garden

• You need to inspect the garden and check for the
  dead trees. Remove them from the garden.
• Similarly, you should check for the dead
  branches as well.
• If you have full-grown trees, then you need
  a tree removal company to perform the job.

2 Prune the trees

• Another important part of the cleanup process is
  pruning. Pruning is the process of removing dying
  or dead branches. It improves the strength of
  trees.
• The pruning process is vital for sustaining the
  life of trees. If you do not remove the dying
  branches, they may fall when heavy snow sits on
  them.
• Hence, it is essential to call a tree pruning
  expert before the winter season begins.

3 Wrap the trees

• Why is wrapping important?
• Trees get extra protection from their leaves.
  When the trees shed their leaves, you need to
  make some alternative arrangements.
• Wrapping is a good idea. It helps the tree to
  face winter sunscald and other conditions that
  damage the bark.
• It would be best if you wrapped the tree from
  top to bottom so that moisture doesnt accumulate
  on the folds.

4 Place mulch around the trees

• When you place mulch around the trees, it
  reduces the temperature extremes when the season
  is cool and dry.
• Also, it helps the trees to retain moisture.
• However, there is a word of advice. Keep a gap
  of 6 inches, at least between the mulch and the
  tree. It discourages the growth of fungus on the
  trunk.

5 Add fertilizer to the tree

• Before the harsh season of winters begins, it is
  the right time to supplement the soil with some
  nutrients. Add a slow-release fertilizer to the
  soil so that your trees get a supply of nutrition
  throughout the winter season.
• They will get some extra strength to fight
  disease and insects.
• You need to be proactive and alert so that you
  take the right step at the right time. It will
  safeguard the trees during winter.
• Indeed, it is a difficult time for the trees, but
  you can make it comfortable by following the
  simple steps given in the blog.
