Nashville Tree Expert Says Now is Good Time to Replace Your Dead Trees

Kaily’s Tree Services’ Flavio Martinez says cooler temperatures of the fall and winter give newly planted trees time to grow roots and absorb nutrients.

Nashville, TN, November 23, 2011 --(PR.com)-- Wondering if this is a good time to replace trees lost during summer drought? Tree expert Flavio Martinez with Kaily’s Tree service (http://kailystreeservice.com) says a resounding yes.

The Nashville, TN based certified arborist and tree disease management specialist says that planting trees during the cooler months gives trees time to grow deeper roots and absorb more nutrients.

“Cooler months of winter are usually the best time to plant trees. We get many calls from customers asking if this is the right time to replace dead trees. I say it is. You do not want to plant trees during the summer months because they will die from excessive heat,” Martinez said.

“If you live in areas that have warm climate then anytime is good except during the summer because the trees just do not have enough time to grow their roots before the scorching heat arrives. The summer is a much greater threat to new trees than anything else.”

He said Nashville residents should consider replacing trees lost during the summer months now. “Trees are going into dormancy. This is when moving or planting them is less disruptive. It also allows them time to grow roots. You don’t want to wait until it is almost summer or when the heat arrives.”

The tree expert advised residents not to forget watering the trees.

“Just because the weather is cooler now does not mean trees do not need water. They still do especially since they are still growing their roots. If you fail to water properly, the trees will die,” he said.

Martinez said planting trees in the fall gives them additional time. “It is important to get trees in the ground before the temperatures get hotter and drier. Also in cooler weather, the soil is compacted, giving the trees excellent root to soil contact.”
