More About Tree Maintenance
Premature defoliation is another sign that your tree is unhealthy and lacking in the nutrients necessary to nurture a normal growth cycle.
To determine if a branch is dead when there are no leaves or fruit, look for dry leaves that didn't fall from the tree of its own accord.
You can also try to break one of the twigs.
If it snaps as if the wood were dry, it is indeed a dead branch.
Another concern some homeowners have relates to when there's construction going on near your trees.
You can talk to the foreman to see what precautions are being taken to protect your trees
and the surrounding areas.
The general rule of thumb is that a tree needs to be protected by a one-foot radius around the tree per every inch in diameter of the tree trunk.
Tree Fertilizing Providence RI
Regular proper fertilizing helps keep your trees and their limbs healthy and also serves to promote luxurious, beautiful foliage that adds value and significant curb appeal to your property.
The process is often as such - liquid fertilizers are applied by injecting the fluid directly into the root area for maximum benefit.
The fertilizer typically has a slow-release action that won’t burn delicate root systems.
Deep root fertilization is another method that can help with problems of soil compaction, when the soil around the tree is not well aerated or has become compacted.
Liquid fertilizer applied to the root zone under pressure helps aerate the soil from where it's applied right on up to the surface.
This method opens tiny air pockets throughout the area surrounding the roots, helping to provide much-needed oxygen to the entire root system.
Effective Tree Maintenance
This deep method of fertilization is especially useful for trees growing in landscaped lawns and also in areas having a significant amount of other vegetation, such as various plants and ground cover growing around them.
The fertilizer is injected below the roots of the tree in order to provide the maximum benefit to the deeper roots of the tree, and encouraging reaching and stretching of the roots of said tree.
Surface fertilization, like a typical lawn fertilizer, does not provide a significant benefit to trees and shrubs, as it simply doesn’t penetrate deep enough for the natural course of the action of the roots to take advantage of.
When standard fertilizer is applied to the surface, the thick, fibrous roots of lawns and ground covers utilize and hold nutrients, and doesn't allow them to be absorbed into the deep soil layer where the roots of the trees live and thrive.

Micronutrients such as iron and manganese, as well as Mycorrhizae (the symbiotic fungi that work closely with tree root systems to help them thrive) are oftentimes added to deep root fertilizers in an effort to treat other common tree problems.
A tree's root system, which is truly its life support, can be twice as large below the topsoil as it is above ground.
Precautions need to be taken, even if it there's nothing happening on the surface.
