Three Reasons to Consider Tree and Plant Healthcare with Arborist Now
The Importance of Regular Tree and Plant Care
How long has it been since your trees had an "annual physical"? Just like people, trees benefit from regular preventative care. To provide this essential level of care, arborists have developed Plant Healthcare (PHC) programs. These programs involve routine inspections of trees and plants in your landscape, ensuring optimal health and identifying potential issues before they become serious. Instead of waiting for problems to develop, Arborist Now’s Tree and Plant Healthcare Program offers a proactive approach to maintaining the health and beauty of your landscape.
Why Regular Tree Inspections Are Essential

1. Your Trees Won’t Take Care of Themselves
It's easy to assume that trees can thrive independently, especially when we see massive forests filled with trees that have flourished without human intervention. However, it's important to remember that these trees are in their natural environment. In contrast, trees in urban settings, like those in San Francisco, face a unique set of challenges.
In forests, dead leaves decompose naturally, enriching the soil with essential nutrients. Urban trees, however, are often deprived of this natural composting process because we rake up leaves before they can decompose. Additionally, urban soil is frequently compacted during construction, making it difficult for tree roots to grow and access the oxygen they need. Air pollution further exacerbates the stress on urban trees.
Urban trees, unlike their forest counterparts, require additional care to thrive. Regular tree inspections and maintenance are crucial for ensuring that your trees remain healthy and resilient in an environment that isn’t naturally conducive to their well-being.
2. Save Money with Our Tree and Plant Healthcare Program
Just as with human health, preventive care in tree and plant health can save you money in the long run. Regular tree and plant healthcare helps identify and resolve issues before they escalate into costly problems. The average property owner may not notice the early signs of tree disease or poor health, but trained arborists can detect these issues early on.
Common problems such as poor nutrition, pest infestations, or disease can be addressed before the tree becomes too weak to recover. In contrast, removing a tree, especially in an emergency, can be extremely expensive. Moreover, losing a mature tree diminishes the value of your property and the aesthetic appeal of your landscape, a loss that takes years to recover from.
In comparison, the cost of regular tree and plant healthcare is minimal. By investing in routine inspections and care, you can prevent the significant expense and loss associated with tree removal.
3. Environmentally Responsible Tree and Plant Healthcare

Caring for plants in an environmentally responsible way is not only beneficial for your trees but also for the ecosystem as a whole. When issues like tree disease or pest infestations are identified early, they can often be treated with organic and non-invasive methods. These treatments are kinder to the environment but may take longer to work compared to synthetic solutions.
A well-designed Plant Healthcare program allows for regular inspections and early interventions, enabling the use of non-invasive treatments. However, if problems are detected too late, more aggressive chemical treatments might be necessary, which are less environmentally friendly.
Maintaining the health of your trees is, in itself, an environmentally responsible action. Trees play a critical role in supporting the ecosystem, and the loss of even one tree can have a significant impact on the environment. By investing in regular care, you contribute to the overall health of the environment.
