Care

How are trees cared for? These plants, when they are in a place where the conditions are right, hardly need care. But when this is not the case, that is, when they are kept in gardens outside their places of origin, or inside the house, they can become very dependent of those who purchased them.

Trees, and really all plants, depend on the weather to know when to grow, flower, bear fruit, and rest. They have adapted to what is in their respective natural habitats, but they can have problems if the conditions of the garden are too different from what they would have in their places of origin.

So how should they be cared for? To answer that question You have to know that they cannot miss: light, water or nutrients. Each species requires certain amounts of these three things, so if we plant, for example, a Japanese maple, which requires a temperate climate and soil with an acidic pH, on the Mediterranean coast, where summer temperatures are very elevated and the soil is alkaline, it would have problems due to the lack of iron and water.

Therefore, in this section we are going to talk about the general care that trees need so you know how to keep them healthy.
