Tree Planting & Care FAQs

Choosing the right tree for your property depends on soil type, sunlight, and local climate. Selecting species suited to Yonkers ensures healthy growth and longevity.
Proper planting depth and regular watering during the first year are crucial. Mulching helps retain moisture and protects roots from temperature extremes.
  • How do I know which tree species thrive in Yonkers?

    Trees like red maple, oak, and dogwood adapt well to Yonkers’ climate and soil. Our experts can recommend species based on your specific site conditions.

    Considering factors such as soil drainage, sunlight exposure, and space will help you select trees that require less maintenance and grow strong.

  • What is the best time to plant trees in this area?

    Early spring and late fall are ideal for planting in Yonkers, as cooler temperatures reduce stress on new trees and encourage root establishment.

    Avoid planting during extreme heat or drought periods to give your trees the best chance to thrive from the start.

  • How often should I water newly planted trees?

    Water young trees deeply once or twice a week, depending on rainfall, to keep the soil moist but not waterlogged.

    Adjust watering frequency during dry spells and reduce it as the tree matures and establishes a deeper root system.

  • What maintenance do trees need after planting?

    Regular pruning removes dead or damaged branches and promotes healthy growth. Inspect trees for pests or diseases periodically.

    Applying mulch and fertilizing appropriately supports root development and overall tree health throughout the seasons.

  • When should I call a professional for tree care?

    Contact us if you notice signs of disease, structural damage, or if a tree poses safety risks near your home or power lines.

    Our licensed team provides expert trimming, removal, and health assessments to keep your trees safe and thriving.

  • Can I plant trees near my home without causing damage?

    Choosing species with non-invasive roots and planting at recommended distances prevents damage to foundations and underground utilities.

    We offer guidance on proper placement to balance shade, aesthetics, and safety for your property.
