Fall Care Leads to Spring Results
ISA Certified Arborists. Fall plant health care and landscape services in Macomb County, Oakland County, and Metro Detroit.
Trees and shrubs do not go dormant and stop working. Fall is when they move carbohydrates and nutrients into their root systems, harden off against cold stress, and determine what spring growth looks like. The decisions made in fall, about fertilization, pest management, planting, and assessment, have real consequences six months later.
Branch Tree has been providing fall programs in Macomb and Oakland County for 40 years, ensuring the proper steps are taken for spring results.

Fall Services
Fall Planting
Cooler temperatures and consistent soil moisture make fall one of the strongest planting windows of the year. New trees and shrubs establish root systems before the ground freezes and come out of spring already acclimated. For properties planning significant additions, fall gets the work done before the spring window becomes competitive.
Deep Root Fertilization
Trees and shrubs absorb nutrients actively in fall as they move toward dormancy. Deep root fertilization during this window delivers macro and micronutrients directly to the root zone when the plant is primed to use them. Branch Tree builds the program around what your specific soil chemistry and trees require, not a standard formula.
Box Tree Moth -- Fall Treatment Window
Box tree moth completes multiple generations per season in Southeast Michigan. Fall treatment reduces overwintering populations before the larvae shelter in their protective webbing. For properties where boxwoods were not treated earlier in the season, this window still matters.
Fungal Disease and Insect Treatments
Several disease pathogens and insect pests overwinter in plant tissue and reestablish in spring with a significant head start. Fall treatment interrupts that cycle. Branch Tree assesses what your specific property is carrying and recommends timing based on what is actually present.
Winter Moisture Protection
Evergreens and winter-sensitive shrubs lose moisture through their foliage during Michigan winters even when the ground is frozen. Anti-desiccant application before freeze-up protects foliage and buds from desiccation and cold-weather damage.
Pre-Winter Structural Assessment
A walk through your property before winter is the straightforward way to identify hazard limbs and structural concerns before ice loading and high winds make them urgent. Branch Tree arborists flag what needs attention so you can address it on your schedule.
