Fertilization can improve the vigor and growth rate of your trees, and increase resistance to stresses and pathogens.
At Scott's Treescape, we utilize balanced, slow release fertilizers that stimulate the root system as well as the crown.
While we primarily recommend fall fertilization to enhance the long term growth benefits to your tree, spring fertilization can be beneficial in some circumstances.
As an ISA certified arborist, Scott will analyze your trees and formulate an appropriate nutrient management program to meet your needs and goals.
MYCORRHIZAL INOCULATION
Mycorrhizal inoculation is the process of injecting mycorrhizal spores into the soil around the roots of your tree.
This creates a symbiotic fungal infection that increases the biomass of the root structure, thus making it possible for the tree to absorb far more nutrients than it could prior to inoculation.
In some instances mycorrhizal inoculation can increase root efficiency up to 100%. This means stronger, healthier trees that are more resistant to drought, insect infestation and disease.
A well designed tree maintenance program is the key to healthier, happier trees. At Scott's Treescape we offer professional pruning, fertilization, mycorrhizal innoculation and disease & insect control for the Wilmington, NC area.
PRUNING
At Scott's Treescape, we utilize natural target pruning methods when working with your trees. These methods boost structural stability, reduce storm damage, encourage sound limb structure and promote the overall beauty of the tree.
In addition, by removing dead, weak and diseased limbs, we increase airflow within the crown which deters insect and disease infestation.
Scott McGhee is a certified arborist in Wilmington with over 20 years experience pruning trees and oversees all our pruning activity. This assures you a quality product from a true professional.
DISEASE & INSECT CONTROL
Insect infestations can be a real problem in southeastern NC. While some insects can kill a tree, most are a nuisance that degrade tree health making the tree susceptible to other pathogens.

Fruit Tree Borer
Gloomy Scale
Kermis Scale
