Can I plant a fruit tree in the fall?
.
.
.
Yes... it’s not too late! By planting cold-hardy trees in the fall, roots are able to settle resulting in better fruiting & heartier growth in the spring. Trees planted in the fall require less water than those planted in the spring or summer, resulting in heartier growth and better fruiting. Speak with an expert at #Emeraldtreecare to ensure you have the best assortment for your landscape. Additionally, an expert can ensure your fruit trees receive the correct amount of nutrients to keep them healthy and strong. #fruittree #roots #planting #tips #tree

*Reduces greenhouse effects
*Lessens plastic consumption by providing fruit from your garden versus a store that uses containers
*Prevents flooding & soil erosion
*Contributes to a healthy ecosystem
*Increases the property value of your home 7% or more

Which fruit trees can I keep small?
.
.
.
.
Answer: Apples, peaches, nectarines, and plums are often planted with limited space and then pruned extensively. The method in which an #arborist takes to prune a fruit tree results in how much fruit is produced.
.
.
.
If you are tight on space, have your tree care professional ‘train’ your branches to grow flat against a fence or wall, a great way to fit fruit trees into narrow landscapes. #peaches #Emeraldtreecare #arblife #fruittrees #necatrines #growyourown #homegrown #espaliering #sustainability #fruittrees #fruitfacts #fall #hydrate #plums #planting #smallgarden

We found the Dogwood Borer while pruning an American Dogwood tree in Greenwich, CT.
These pests are members of the Clear Wing moth family. This borer is one of the most destructive pests of the Flowering Dogwood, as well as many other ornamental, fruit & nut trees.
Sanitary pruning conducted by an expert arborist is essential to keeping your trees healthy & safe from pests. #Emearldtreecare #sanitaryprune #pests #treecare #trees

Years ago, the root system of this tree was damaged. With its health steadily declining, Emerald safely removed this tree to protect residents and the new cottage on this property. #treework #Emeraldtreecare #buckettruck #tree #safety
"To wrap up our series, here is how you can prevent oak wilt from spreading:
*Work with an Arborist who can identify oak wilt signs & symptoms
*Don’t prune or damage oak trees between April and August… this is the most vulnerable time for spores to spread!
*Report summer leaf fall and sudden die off of oaks
*Don’t move firewood as it may contain live fungal spores"
