Castillo Landscaping & Tree Service, your trusted partner in transforming outdoor spaces, presents a comprehensive guide to winter tree service. Explore our expert tips to ensure a stunning landscape that endures the winter chill with grace and resilience.

Pre-Winter Prune

As autumn bids farewell, seize the opportunity for a pre-winter prune. Proper pruning before winter helps in removing dead or weak branches, reducing the risk of breakage under snow or ice load. Castillo Landscaping’s skilled arborists specialize in precision pruning, ensuring your trees enter winter with a robust and well-structured framework.

Winter’s Protective Blanket

Mulching isn’t just for the warmer months. In winter, a layer of mulch around the base of your trees acts as a protective blanket. It insulates the soil, regulates temperature fluctuations, and retains moisture—all crucial for the well-being of your trees during the colder months. Our tree service experts at Castillo Landscaping can guide you on the ideal mulching techniques for your specific landscape.

Winter Watering Wisdom

Contrary to popular belief, trees need hydration during winter. Castillo Landscaping emphasizes the importance of winter watering, especially for newly planted or young trees. Proper hydration helps trees combat winter stress and promotes overall health. Learn the art of winter watering to keep your trees thriving even when the ground is covered in snow.

While many pests take a winter hiatus, some remain active, posing a threat to your trees. Castillo Landscaping’s tree care includes pest management strategies tailored for winter. Our experts can identify potential threats and implement preventive measures to safeguard your trees from winter pest infestations.
