TREES
NEW YORK RESOURCES
Now that the weather is warm, here
are some things you can do to help your trees:
- Watering is one of
the most important ways to help your tree. See
Helping a Tree
Recover from Drought for an easy way to water
your trees.
- Remove debris from tree
pit including garbage and pine needles used as mulch during the winter.
- Remove decorative lighting
from trees if you haven't already. This is important because not only
is it illegal to leave the lights on the trees all year, it is very
detrimental to the health of the tree. The lights will girdle the tree
and prevent nutrients, water, and oxygen from moving through the tree.
If you are a certified
Citizen Pruner you might want to take advantage of the nice weather to
prune in your neighborhood. If you would like to join others or have others
join you in pruning go to
Outings Page
and check whether anyone has listed an outing. If no
outings are scheduled, please email
us to schedule your own.
