What Exactly is Plant Health Care?

Plants, like any living beings, are susceptible to diseases and other health issues. Plant health care focuses on preventing these issues from taking root and addressing them promptly when they do occur. Our team of experts takes a preventative approach to keep your yard looking great all year round.

There are various factors that can impact the health of your yard, such as overwatering, under-watering, invasive species, or lack of pruning. At General Tree Services, our technicians are trained to recognize insect, disease, and cultural problems and will treat affected plants only when needed. This results in a healthier landscape and benefits our environment by limiting the amount of materials applied.

Common Effects of Plant Disease

Plant diseases can have varied and substantial impacts on the overall health and aesthetics of your landscape.

Here are some common signs that may indicate plant health issues:

  • Premature leaf dropping or color change
  • "Dead" or "bald" spots in the tree's canopy
  • Increased insect activity
  • Newly-exposed tree roots
  • Cracks or holes in tree trunks
  • Dangling tree branches
  • Fungus or mushrooms on tree trunks and roots

How Our Technicians Determine Plant Health

Our certified arborists and plant experts are trained to recognize and address insect, disease, and cultural problems. They conduct thorough inspections to catch any potential issues early on. This proactive approach allows for the most successful treatments and helps maintain a healthier landscape overall.

Our experts follow a comprehensive procedure to assess plant health:

  • Site inspection: This is the preliminary step where our experts observe the general health of your landscape. They look for early signs of disease, pests, or any other anomalies that could threaten plant health.
  • Soil analysis: Soil health directly influences plant health. Our experts thoroughly analyze the soil to determine its nutritional composition, microbial activity, pH level, and more.
  • Species identification: Different plants have specific needs and are affected by unique sets of diseases and pests. By identifying the species, our experts can determine the appropriate care and treatment necessary.
  • Growth and development monitoring: Our experts regularly check on the plant's growth and development. Any unusual patterns or stages could be indicative of a health issue.
  • Pest and disease diagnosis: If a plant exhibits signs of stress or disease, our experts conduct further investigation to identify the source, which could be pests or diseases. Once identified, a targeted treatment plan is implemented.

Through these steps, we can ensure that your plants receive the personalized care they need to thrive. Our experts will take care of everything, keeping you apprised along the way. You can focus on what’s truly important while enjoying the sight of your healthy, beautiful yard.
