Tip #1: PREVENT STORM-RELATED DAMAGE 
With winter comes high winds, heavy snowfalls, and accumulating ice – prevent damage to your trees and property with an inspection for dead, broken or weak limbs and take appropriate action with tree pruning, cabling or bracing.

Tip #2: PROTECT YOUR EVERGREENS FROM WINTER DRYING
Harsh winds and cold temperatures can cause the foliage of your shrubs and evergreens to dry out. Our anti-desiccant treatment protects your evergreens by providing a barrier between your plants and the elements.

Tip #3: KEEP YOUR SOIL SALT-FREE
Road salt is a popular choice for de-icing walkways, but did you know it can seriously damage your trees and shrubs? Our salt-buffer treatment helps drive salt away from your plants, keeping the root system healthy during the dormant season.

Tip #4: FERTILIZE YOUR TREES 
Supplying important nutrients now ensures a vigorous plant over the winter and into the next growing season. Our specialized fall fertilizer targets the root system of woody plants, a critical part of the tree that remains active well into late autumn.
