Signs Of a Sick Shrub In Fort Worth, Texas

11/21/2019

MY SHRUB DOESN'T LOOK HEALTHY.  WHAT CAN BE WRONG WITH It?

There are a variety of reasons why your shrub doesn't appear healthy. Improper growing conditions, insect problems and plant diseases can all be contributing factors for declining shrubs.  When in doubt as to the health of your shrubs or trees it is always best to contact an arbor care professional. The experienced plant pathologist will inspect the shrub and provide a diagnosis report.

WHAT IMPROPER GROWING CONDITIONS CAN AFFECT MY SHRUBS HEALTH?

1. Overcrowding Of Shrubs & Plants
Shrubs and plants that are initially planted to closely together do not have adequate space for proper root growth.

2. Compacted Soil
Shrubs and trees are known by arbor care experts as woody plants because they have the potential to grow deeper root systems.  Compacted soil prevents sufficient root development.

3. Improper Watering
Do not second-guess the water needs of your shrubs.  Shrubs can die due to excessive or improper watering.  Always entrust the expertise of a plant care specialist.

4. Extreme Temperatures Or Sunlight
Shrubs and trees must be planted where they receive the sunlight they require and are not subjected to extreme temperatures.  Planting in locations that are not proper for the type of shrub can result in its demise.

WHAT INSECT PESTS DAMAGE SHRUBS?

The following are two of the most destructive insects that experienced plant pathologists and arbor care experts frequently encounter and battle in Fort Worth. 

1. Aphids
At first seeming to be an annoyance, these tiny insects reproduce swiftly and quickly overtake your entire outdoor habitat.  They cluster together on stems and leaves and extract the nutrients from the plants.  Left untreated, the leaves will yellow, wilt and begin dying.

2. Sprider Mites
These microscopic pests are so common that it is more unusual not to have them!  They thrive in warm Texas spring weather.  They siphon nutritional fluids from leaves and inflict tiny bite marks on the topside of leaves and silky webbing on the underside.  Without treatment, spider mites not only overtake the outdoor grounds but also will invade your house plants. They can quickly kill the infested plant.

ARE THERE SERIOUS DISEASES THAT CAN DAMAGE OR KILL SHRUBS?

Below are some common plant diseases frequently seen throughout Fort Worth.

1. Powdery Mildew
This fungal disease causes plants to appear as if they have been sprinkled with flour.  The white dusty spots will swiftly engulf plant leaves and overtake your outdoor grounds.  Treatment must be administered quickly to preserve your plants and your residential outdoor environment.

2. Mosaic Disease
A number of viral diseases known as "mosaics" affect plants.  This causes parts of leaves to turn yellow and blotched and appear in a mosaic-like pattern.  Mosaic disease does not often destroy shrubs but it is visually displeasing.   

3. Fire Blight
This bacterial disease invades more than 75 varieties of shrubs and trees.  It spreads rapidly in damp spring weather via splashing rain.  Fire blight causes new growth to turn black and leaves to die.  It sometimes will kill the entire shrub or tree.

WHAT SHOULD I DO ABOUT MY SICK SHRUB AND HOW CAN I KEEP MY SHRUBS HEALTHY?

1. Contact An Experienced Tree & Plant Company
Proactive measures are always best to ensure your shrubs and trees are protected.  Entrust the care of your residential outdoor environment and your valuable shrubs and trees to the best arborist in Fort Worth, Texas.  The arbor care professionals and plant and tree experts will see to it that your shrubs and trees remain healthy.  They will advise you as to the best plants to plant in the areas within your outdoor grounds.

2. Regular Pruning 
Diseased branches should be pruned regularly by a pruning service using sanitized tools.  Regularly-scheduled pruning prevents disease from infiltrating throughout the entire shrub.

3. Removed Seriously Infested Or Diseased Shrubs
Severely diseased or dead trees, shrubs and plants should be immediately removed by a professional tree and plant removal company.  This prevents insect pests and diseases from overtaking your grounds and spreading to your healthy shrubs and trees.

4. Controlled Watering
The arbor care expert will analyze your habitat grounds and determine the proper watering your shrubs and trees need.  Controlled and monitored watering by means of soil drenching and soaker hoses ensures that your trees and shrubs do not suffer from drought-like conditions or have standing water surrounding them that will invite fungal ailments.

5. Continual Tree & Plant Health Care Maintenance Plan
The highly-experienced and knowledgeable tree and plant experts will customize an ongoing tree and plant health care program exclusively for you.  This will eliminate you of the concern for your valuable living investment's health and you will have peace in knowing that your residence, trees and plants will always remain beautiful, healthy and strong.

OUR REVIEWS

2018-1-01

These guys were great. Very professional and knocked out a big job in just a few short hours. They clearly knew what they were doing and went above and behind to carefully analyze the health of each tree, and what was needed. As opposed to trimming and moving on. I highly recommend. They did my neighbor as well.

I needed a tree removed from our front yard this past weekend. I called Josh Anthony with Tree Service Fort Worth they came in at a competitive rate and removed it in a safe manner. I will used them again in the future and recommend them to others in Fort Worth.

Very happy in my dealings with Henry and his crew. Henry came out on short notice to provide some recommendations on trimming and keeping one of my pecan trees healthy. His crew was able to come out a couple days later and were very professional and efficient. They even took the bigger limbs that were removed and cut them down for firewood and stacked the wood. Will definitely work with them again for future tree care.

Had just closed on the new house with beautiful landscape to discover my cypress trees dying and other trees on the property looking ill. Called two other arborist before I discovered Henry. Though there was no saving my already dying trees; the others were diagnosed, treated and saved. Henry was not only knowledgeable but also professional, friendly and extremely reasonable. It is almost shocking to find people like him these days. Highly recommended to all!
