★ The Heartwood Tree Co. Health Plan

A scientist on your trees, six times a year.

Maplewood is one of the hardest places in the country to be a tree. The Tree Health Plan puts a certified arborist on your property six times a year — feeding, protecting, and treating on a schedule built around how local pests and disease actually behave. Problems get caught and cured before you'd ever see them from the ground.

Landscape insurance for your trees · no homework for you

The premise

Most tree care is reactive. You look up one day, spot a dead limb, and call someone — by then the damage is already done.

I.
We flip it.We build a year-round route for your property and arrive six times across the seasons — keeping your trees fed, protected, and treated at the first measurable sign of trouble.
II.
A scientist, not a crew.Every visit is a certified arborist who knows your trees and watches them change — backed by our own pathology lab when something needs a closer look.
III.
Caught before you see it.By the time the canopy looks bad, it's usually too late. Catching insect and disease problems early is the realest defense there is — and the entire point of the plan.
What's included — the calendar of visits

The six-visit year

A season-by-season program timed to Maplewood's pest and disease cycles — feeding, protecting, and treating your trees at exactly the right moments.

Visit I

Spring

Trees enter the year strong
  • Fertilization to wake the tree up well-fed
  • Systemic treatment for aphids and other chewing & sucking insects
Visits II–III

Summer

Peak growth · root support
  • Second fertilization
  • Arbuscular mycorrhizae inoculation — beneficial root fungi for water & nutrient uptake
  • Borer sprays
Visit IV

Fall

Setting up for winter
  • Fertilization to store energy for the cold months
  • Seasonal sprays to protect through winter
Every visit

The arborist

On-site, six times a year
  • A trained set of eyes — not a crew running a checklist
  • Early diagnosis backed by our pathology lab
Borer treatments on a 60-day cycle

Bore protection runs on a rolling schedule through the active season — because that's the window it actually matters.

Every 60 days · active season

Exact treatments are tailored to your property, tree species, and what our arborists find on each visit.

No checklist crews

A certified arborist — already on your calendar.

You manage none of this. Every visit is a trained arborist who knows your trees, watches them change across the seasons, and acts the moment something measurable is off. That continuity — the same scientific eye, six times a year — is the whole point.

Why this matters here

Maplewood is one of the toughest places in the country to be a tree.

Nearly every major tree pest and disease found in the U.S. turns up in the Maplewood area — and oaks especially are at serious risk. A proactive, scheduled program is the realest defense there is.

Unusual pest & disease pressure

Trees here face threats most regions never see all at once. They decline at an alarming rate — and reactive care simply can't keep up.

By the time you can see it, it's late

A homeowner who waits until the canopy looks bad has usually waited too long. Catching problems early is the entire premise of the plan.

Why Heartwood runs the plan

This isn't a spray service

It's the most credentialed plant-health team in the region — a Board Certified Master Arborist and an in-house lab — on a schedule.

Method i.

Our own pathology lab

"The mad scientists of trees" run a working pathology lab alongside a mycologist — curing problems other companies write off as untreatable.

Method ii.

Root-system cure

We expose the root crown with air, diagnose the disease in the soil, and backfill with the cure — applied right at the source.

Method iii.

Certified arborists only

Every visit is a trained arborist — the same scientific standard that earned a top arboriculture credential and 1,400+ five-star reviews.

Six visits a year. By the year's end, your trees are bulletproof.
