Changes in your trees

We haven’t had our first significant snowfall yet; however, with most of your irrigation systems already turned off, we wanted to remind you how important it is to winter water your plant material. During excessively long dry spells, even watering parts of your lawn will be beneficial, especially south facing lawns and hills.

Most of us who have lived here for a number of years realize that the perception the rest of the country has (about our city being under snow all winter) is far from what actually happens. Most winters in Denver are in fact very sunny and dry with very little precipitation. New plant material is the most susceptible to desiccation during the winter months but even mature trees and shrubs can suffer through the winter. Winter watering of your plant material is one of the most significant things you can do to promote healthy plants in the spring.
