Proactive Protection: Science Based Plant Health Care
Published December 12, 2025
Your mountain landscape, with its unique collection of high altitude trees and shrubs, is constantly battling environmental stressors and threats from native insects and diseases. Waiting until a plant shows severe symptoms often means it is too late to save it. A healthy landscape requires proactive, science based management to protect your valuable assets.
Earth Wise Horticultural provides professional Plant Health Care (PHC) programs, led by our ISA Certified Arborists. Serving the Roaring Fork and Vail Valleys since 1994, we offer accurate diagnosis and effective treatment tailored to the specific needs of mountain growing conditions.
The Core of Our Plant Health Care Approach
PHC is not a one size fits all service. It is a comprehensive strategy focused on optimizing plant vigor and preventing problems before they start.
Accurate Diagnosis: Our certified arborists are trained and tested to accurately diagnose the specific pest, disease, or cultural issue affecting your trees and shrubs. This local knowledge is crucial for identifying problems unique to the mountain environment.
Targeted Pest Management: We protect plants from damaging insects like aphids, mites, and pine beetles. Treatment options are carefully selected to be the most effective against the specific pest while minimizing impact on beneficial insects and the environment.
Disease Prevention and Treatment: The high moisture cycles and short growing seasons in the Rockies can encourage fungal and bacterial diseases. We recommend effective treatment options tailored to your trees to maintain the health and beauty of your landscape throughout the seasons.
Nutrient Management: Proper nutrition is the foundation of plant health. We assess soil conditions and provide deep root fertilization and micronutrient applications to correct deficiencies. This strengthens the plant's natural defense system, making it more resistant to pests and disease.
Year Round Care: We understand that high altitude landscapes need specialized care year round. Our PHC programs ensure your plants receive timely inspections and treatments tailored to the specific challenges of each mountain season.
