When you spot it early the odds are that you can have it repaired or fixed and get back to your healthy tree. The trees health is important if you want it to grow the shape and size it was intended to grow. It also is important to care for the tree so that you get what you want from it such as shade and beauty. Also knowing the early signs of stress on your trees is a great place to start.

Milam’s Tree Service Lists Signs Your Trees Are Stressed

Broken Tree Branches: One of the signs that your tree is feeling stressed out is the presence of damaged and missing branches. This can be a branch that is usually full of beautiful leaves and foliage but has recently stopped producing them. It can be a branch that has otherwise been healthy and was damaged or broken in a storm. These branches are all showing signs that the tree is feeling stressed out. You want to make sure that any damaged limbs are removed from the tree and make some adjustments to increase the health of the tree.
Cracks in Tree Trunks: There are some other damage to the tree that can be a clear sign that the tree is stressed. The tree might have areas that are cracked or split which means that the tree is not getting the support that it needs. If you see small cracks it can be repaired on its own but larger cracks and splits need to be inspected by a tree care specialists.
Leaning Tree: When you have a tree that was planted it should be inserted in the ground at an appropriate level and in a space that it has space to grow. The tree can start to lean to one side or another which actually is a sign that there is stress to a tree. Some trees are going to have some lean but if you notice the lean is starting to get worse the roots can be stressed and not going deep enough into the ground to secure the tree.
Lack Of Leaves: Another sign that you need to look for is when the spring comes and your tree is not fully blooming. Maybe the entire tree is baron and just never started to get leaves or there are spots in the tree that are bare. If you start to notice that the tee is not able to grow any leaves and the weather is warm enough that it should have you need to have it inspected and looked at by a professional.
