Arboriculture is in full swing during October, making it an ideal month for many tree care tasks.
It is important to prune your trees. Any harmful, dead, diseased, or hazardous branches should be removed.
October is often your last opportunity to trim your cedars before winter sets in.
You can create mulch zones around your plants or refresh existing mulch (2 to 5 cm). Your trees will appreciate this extra layer before winter.
October is a good time to trim your deciduous hedges, such as honeysuckle hedges.
At the end of October, be sure to water your conifers before the first ground freeze and the arrival of harsh winter temperatures.
Deciduous trees put on a spectacular display of colors from late September to early October, be sure not to miss it!
