Tree Care in Bonadelle Ranchos, CA

If you're a homeowner in Bonadelle Ranchos, you're likely living with trees that are about 34 years old, planted when these homes were built in the early 1990s. You have some excellent native species like the drought-tolerant Coast Live Oak and the majestic California Sycamore. You also have some problematic trees, like Ficus and Blue Gum Eucalyptus, that were popular choices back then but can cause serious issues now. One of the most common mistakes I see here is watering. The lawn sprinkler system that runs for 15 minutes every day is the worst thing for your trees. It encourages shallow roots because the water never penetrates past the top few inches. In our warm, dry climate with only 14.7 inches of annual rain, your trees need deep, infrequent watering to survive our very high drought risk and develop strong, stable root systems.
