Spring Into Action

Spring Into Action 1

Spring can be a busy season when it comes to managing our gardens. As we emerge from our winter hibernation and step back into our yards, it can be easy to feel a little overwhelmed by all the work ahead of us. That’s where we come in, ready to trim your workload, make your yard safer, or offer ideas on how to make the most out of this bright and lively season.

Pruning
Pruning can be tricky in spring, as we generally try to avoid heavy trimming of deciduous trees coming out of winter dormancy, as disrupting new growth can cause our trees stress. For some species, however, it might be the perfect time for it, as with trees and shrubs that have recently finished flowering (like Camellias, Magnolias or certain fruit trees). Sometimes we may not have the luxury of waiting, as in risk management works, or maybe we choose to balance the potential for stress against the need to tame unruly growth before things get out of hand. If you’re ever unsure, our expert arborists are happy to discuss the best options for your situation, with a highly skilled team ready to act on whatever plan you settle on.

Specialist services
It’s not all chainsaws and noise on offer, either. Tree FX also provides many specialised and proactive services, such as cabling and bracing, possum guarding, and various other tree health and pest management strategies.
