Stress Proof Your Trees

winter tree damage The farmers’ almanac is calling for a harsh winter filled with storms, low temperatures, and lots of snow. This type of winter can wreak havoc on your trees leading to poor performance and appearance during the spring or worse case scenario, the death of your tree.

Symptoms of Winter Stress Include:

  • Canopy dieback
  • Windburn
  • Salt damage
  • Insect infestations & diseases
  • Deadwood
  • Broken limbs
  • Falling trees
  • Bark discoloration
  • Overall decline in health

Luckily with certain precautions you can combat the stress this winter will put on your tree by treating your tree with 2 simple fall applications, a Bio Stimulant application and a Tree Growth Regulator (TGR) application.  These bundled applications are what we call our StressProof Package which will provide health benefits for up to 3 years.

Benefits of the StressProof Package:

  • Prune Less Often
  • Improve resistance to environmental stress such as extreme temperatures, poor soil, drought, & flooding.
  • Keep trees from encroaching on structures & power lines
  • Lower maintenance costs: reduce related pruning, watering, and fertilizer costs.
  • Enhance root and foliage development
  • Improve tree’s ability to recover from disease & insect damage

Don’t wait until it’s too late; protect your trees from the harsh upcoming winter by giving our Arborists a call at 703.573.3029 or booking a consultation online.

To Concerned Citizens,

RTEC Treecare has proudly provided tree care services to the Federal Government for 30 years. During that time, we have worked with over 20 federal agencies across four presidential administrations.

Safety and quality are at the core of everything we do. All work is performed in accordance with OSHA safety regulations and ANSI industry standards to ensure every project is completed professionally and responsibly.

RTEC Treecare is currently performing hazard tree pruning and removal services for the National Park Service at East Potomac Park Golf Course. The trees assigned for treatment have been evaluated and selected by National Park Service arborists based on established hazard assessment criteria.

We want to be clear: RTEC Treecare has not removed any cherry trees at East Potomac Park Golf Course. Our work has been limited to trees identified by the National Park Service as hazardous, non-native, or invasive.

As professional tree care specialists, we are committed to protecting and preserving valuable tree resources while helping ensure public safety.

Every project we undertake is guided by industry best practices and respect for the landscapes and communities we serve.

We remain dedicated to delivering safe, responsible, and high-quality tree care for our clients and the communities they serve.
