As the weather cools and the growing season begins to wind down in Kansas City, many homeowners assume their tree care tasks are over until spring. But in reality, fall is one of the most important times to focus on your trees’ long-term health. It’s the season for strengthening roots, preventing disease, and preparing your landscape for the months ahead.
That’s exactly what our Plant Health Care Program is designed to do—protect your trees year-round, especially during transitional seasons like fall.
What Is the Plant Health Care Program?
Grade-A Tree Care’s Plant Health Care Program is a proactive, comprehensive approach to keeping your trees healthy and resilient. Rather than waiting for visible problems to appear, our team monitors the health of your trees and shrubs throughout the year—treating issues before they become costly or irreversible.
The program includes:
- Seasonal inspections
- Pest and disease monitoring
- Soil and root health assessments
- Targeted treatments for nutrition, disease, or infestation
- Expert advice tailored to your property and tree species
Why Fall Matters for Tree Health
In fall, trees stop growing above the surface and shift their energy to root development. That makes it a critical window for:
- Strengthening trees before winter stress
- Addressing soil deficiencies
- Managing pests that overwinter in bark or soil
- Preventing fungal diseases that thrive in leaf litter and damp conditions
Our program ensures that your trees head into winter healthy, well-fed, and protected—giving them a head start when spring returns.
What We Look for in Fall Inspections
During a fall Plant Health Care visit, our certified experts will:
- Check for late-season pests like scale, mites, and borers
- Look for signs of stress from summer drought or storm damage
- Recommend deep root fertilization to promote underground growth
- Identify trees with structural issues before snow and ice increase the risk
We also provide clean-up recommendations to remove diseased leaves or branches that could cause problems later in the season.
