Ensure your trees thrive through Upstate NY’s harsh winter with these essential steps from Anjoe Tree Service, serving Albany, Colonie, Troy, and surrounding areas:
- Prune Dead or Weak Branches: Remove dead, damaged, or weak branches to prevent them from falling during heavy snow or ice storms, protecting your property and tree health.
- Mulch for Root Protection: Apply a 2-4 inch layer of organic mulch around tree bases to insulate roots, retain moisture, and protect against freezing temperatures.
- Wrap Young Trees: Protect young or thin-barked trees with tree wraps to prevent frost cracks and sunscald caused by fluctuating winter temperatures.
- Inspect for Pests and Disease: Schedule a professional inspection to identify and treat any pest or disease issues before winter, ensuring trees enter dormancy healthy.
- Water Deeply Before Freeze: Give trees a thorough watering in late fall to hydrate roots, especially evergreens, to combat winter drought stress.
