Benefits of Professional Tree Pruning
Reduce Risk
Trees are valuable assets, but they can also pose risks. Our expert pruning helps mitigate hazards, such as removing dead or weak branches that could fall and damage property or harm individuals during storms.
Promote Tree Health
Encourage healthy growth and vibrant foliage by eliminating diseased, dead, or overcrowded branches. This also improves air circulation and sunlight penetration, essential for your trees’ overall well-being.
Enhance Property Value
Professional pruning not only ensures safety but also boosts curb appeal, enhancing the aesthetic and monetary value of your property.
Achieve Clearance Requirements
We prune low-hanging branches to ensure safe passage on walkways, driveways, and roads. Our services also address clearance concerns around buildings, power lines, and other structures.
Restore Tree Vitality
Storm damage or aging can diminish a tree’s appearance and health. Restoration pruning by skilled arborists can rejuvenate trees, bringing back their natural beauty and strength.
Common Diseases on Shrubs - Tree Service Shreveport
Boxwood Blight
Boxwood blight, caused by the fungus Cylindricladium pseudonaviculatum, leads to lesions on the leaves, eventually spreading to the stems. Left untreated, this infection can cause severe stress and result in the loss of leaves, which may lead to the death of the plant.
Fire Blight
Fire blight is caused by the bacterium Erwinia amylovora and affects over 130 plants in the Rosaceae family, including apple, pear, and hawthorn. Infected branches and leaves will turn brown to black, and the characteristic “shepherd’s crook” develops on affected twigs. Left unchecked, fire blight can cause significant damage to these ornamental shrubs.
Needle, Tip, or Twig Blights
Needle, tip, or twig blights affect various shrub species, including arborvitae, cypress, and juniper. The disease typically begins with the browning or greying of twig tips and needle ends. Black, pimple-like fungal fruiting structures may form on needle surfaces. These blights are often caused by fungi from the Phomopsis, Diplodia, or Coryneum genera.
Leaf Spot
Leaf Spot causes irregular, brown to black spots on leaves, eventually leading to premature leaf drop. The lesions caused by Colletotrichum gloeosporioides appear as round, brown spots on both the upper and lower leaf surfaces. Initially, these fungal infections can resemble symptoms of winter desiccation, but they can progressively damage the plant if untreated.
