How Weather Changes Affect Your Trees Throghout the year
Trees are living organisms that respond directly to climate variations. Understanding how each season affects tree health is essential for preventing damage and keeping your landscape safe year-round.
During spring, trees enter an active growth phase. Adequate watering and soil nutrition are crucial to support new leaves, root development, and structural strength.
Hot summer temperatures can cause trees to lose moisture faster than they can absorb it. Deep watering and mulching help reduce heat stress and protect the root system.
In the fall, trees redirect energy to their roots and begin shedding leaves. This is the ideal time to schedule pruning and structural maintenance to prepare for winter storms.
Cold weather, heavy snow, and ice buildup can lead to branch breakage and structural instability. Winter is when hidden weaknesses become visible—and often dangerous.
Regular seasonal inspections help detect early signs of decay, disease, and root issues, ensuring your trees stay healthy and your property remains protected.
