Spring Tree Planting: Set Your Trees Up for Success

Austin Cowen

Spring is one of the best times to plant new trees, providing them with optimal conditions

to establish strong roots before the heat of summer. However, successful tree planting is more than just digging a hole and setting a tree in place—it requires careful planning and proper care to ensure healthy growth for years to come.

At NWI ArborCare, we specialize in caring for newly planted trees, offering expert services to support their long-term health and vitality. If you're considering adding trees to your landscape this spring, here’s what you need to know to give them the best possible start.


Choosing the Right Tree for the Right Place

Selecting the right tree species for your property is crucial for long-term success. Different trees have varying needs for sunlight, soil type, and space to grow. Our tree selection and location planning service helps you choose the best tree for your landscape while ensuring proper placement to avoid future issues with structures, utilities, and other plants.


Fertilization & Nutrition Management for Young Trees

Newly planted trees need the right nutrients to develop strong roots and withstand environmental stress. Our fertilization and nutrition management services provide trees with essential nutrients, promoting steady growth and improved resistance to pests and diseases. With a soil-first approach, we ensure your trees get what they need without over-fertilization, which can do more harm than good.

Training Pruning for Improved Structure

Proper pruning in a tree’s early years sets the foundation for a strong and well-balanced structure. Our training pruning service removes weak or poorly attached branches, encouraging proper growth patterns and reducing the risk of future structural issues. By shaping young trees early, we help prevent costly pruning or removals down the road.
