Tree Planting

HAT IS PLANT HEALTH CARE?

Plant health care is a holistic approach to tree care. The focus is on developing and maintaining healthy plants, so they become less susceptible to problems. By caring for plants and trees each season, they grow healthier and can better resist pests and withstand difficult problems. Plus, Manatee Tree Service will help predict and prevent problems before they happen. An added bonus? Proactive tree care is almost always less expensive than the costof treating an advanced problem or removing a large tree later on.

GOAL OF PLANT HEALTH CARE?

The goal of plant health care programs is to proactively keep your trees healthy, so they can avoid entering a decline spiral. After trees endure repeated, severe, or ongoing stressors, they begin a cycle of decline. During this time, trees focus on simply surviving and no longer have the ability to thrive. Once they hit a critical point in this cycle, it becomes almost impossible to reverse the trend and nurse the tree back to health. Through plant health care programs, we stop trees from hitting this point. Instead, we keep them healthy from the get-go. Contact Manatee Tree Service if you see symptoms such as discolored leaves, dead branches, or early leaf drop. The cause can be a minor problem that is easily explained and corrected, but other times the problem can be more complex, with several underlying causes and a remedy requiring treatments extending over several years. Our Arborists will choose between Macro Infusion or Micro Infusion of select
products by Mauget or Arborjet depending upon the circumstances and condition of the tree.
