Trees in your garden

Trees offer shade and beauty

Trees offer shade and beauty

For a garden to be complete there must be at least one tree within its boundaries, even if it’s just a little one or a big, old, proud specimen, like, for example an oak. They are your best friends in the summer, providing a place to hide from the sun and enjoy some quality time in nature. But that does not mean that they are useless in the other seasons of the year, quite the opposite; after summer has passed you are left with a myriad of colors from the leaves even if it means having to tidy up the garden. Spring brings flowers and a new wave of colors and the joy of nature coming back to life. And we are left with winter where a tree is most fragile and needs a bit more caring.
And we arrive at the point where you need to tend to your tree. First and foremost ask some professional advice from your local gardener, Browne & Associates, to get started in the right way. Damaging the tree is something nobody wants, so do it properly and don’t rush things.
Most trees require a little attention and others more, as a rule of thumb most trees need to be watered immediately after they have been planted and then quite often in the first years, this applies only to young trees, of course. For more mature ones you don’t need to have a schedule or keep track once in a while is more than enough. But it is critical in the first two years to have the soil most daily so the tree can plant its roots well into the ground and grow strong. The specifics of certain species will be explained to you by your landscaper or gardener; here you have just a quick reference.
To enjoy the tree or the trees in your garden to the fullest you have to make sure that they are healthy and well tended to, again a job for your gardener from Browne & Associates. He can provide proper assistance with the pests and diseases that may occur over the lifetime of the tree; and he is uniquely qualified to judge what problem the tree has and how to treat it so you and your beloved garden don’t have to suffer for long.
Don’t forget that some trees bear fruit and they are more valuable because of this, giving the owner the benefit of fresh yield. The opinion of a professional is needed here and Browne & Associates has just what you need, there are many elements that need considering when choosing the type of tree; the kind of soil, the average light and heat that the tree needs and receives. All of these need to be taken into account for a proper choice to be made. That is why your gardener is here, to guide you, to help you and to answer all of your questions on the subject.
Never be afraid to seek professional help for your garden, after all, to get the best result you need to be willing to spend some time so when the need for rest and relaxation presents itself you can have a proper place to enjoy it.
