FALL
CheckList
Plant
Health
Care
For
Every
Season
Fall
is
a
great
time
of
year.
From
football
to
festivals,
outdoor
activities
come
alive.
This
is
also
a
great
time
for
a
thorough
landscape
inspection.
Keep
these
tasks
in
mind
as
you
review
your
landscape.
Remove
critical
risk
trees.
Watch

it
might
be
time

Storm
Recovery
•
DESCRIPTION:
Heavy
rain,
lightning,
high
winds
or
a
combination
of
any
of
these
severe
weather
scenarios
can
damage
your
trees—from
their
root
systems
all
the
way
to
their
branches
and
leaves.
•
BEST
DEFENSE:
Inspecting
trees
after
storms
is
essential
in
ensuring
strong,
healthy
trees.
Proper
pruning
provides
proper
branch
spacing
and
thins
the
tree
canopy,
allowing
wind
to
blow
through
it
instead
of
against
it.
Pruning
also
removes
potentially
hazardous,
dead
or
weak
branches.

damage
