Specialized care for high-altitude mountain landscapes

Aspen, spruce, and pine take heavy snow. We prune for structure, roof and walk clearance, and snow-load reduction while keeping the mountain look of the property.
Plan pruning →Plant Health Care in Aspen
Alkaline soils and a short season drive iron chlorosis, mites, and canker. Plant health care in Aspen starts with diagnosis, then soil care, injections, or organic options when they fit.

Expert answers about tree care in Aspen's unique environment
What tree species are common in Aspen?
Common trees in the Aspen area include quaking aspen (of course!), Colorado blue spruce, Engelmann spruce, lodgepole pine, Douglas fir, and subalpine fir. At lower elevations near town, you'll also find ornamental species like flowering crabapples and mountain ash. Each species has unique care requirements at this elevation.
When should I water my trees in Aspen?
Deep root watering is most beneficial during hot, dry periods from June through September. Even at 8,000 feet, trees need supplemental water during drought. Water in the morning to reduce evaporation, and focus on established trees that may be competing for moisture.
Do I need wildfire mitigation in Aspen?
Yes, wildfire mitigation is important throughout Pitkin County and the Roaring Fork Valley. Creating defensible space, reducing ladder fuels, and maintaining healthy trees can significantly reduce wildfire risk. Contact us for a free assessment and information on local programs.
Do you remove trees in Aspen?
Yes. Earth-Wise removes trees throughout Aspen, Snowmass Village, Woody Creek, and Red Mountain. Tight access and trees over structures are planned as sectional or crane work, not a backyard felling.
Do you offer lawn care and plant health care in Aspen?
Yes. We run high-altitude lawn care and plant health programs on the same Aspen properties so turf, trees, and shrubs are not on conflicting calendars.
