Fall and winter tree care tips from UI Extension Urbana
The University of Illinois suggests pruning in fall only to remove dead or damaged branches and leaves, with best pruning during the dormant season. Maintain soil moisture through fall and use organic mulch 2 to 4 inches deep with a 2 inch gap from trunks. Tree wraps are discouraged as they can raise trunk temperatures and invite pests. if used for animal protection, choose light wraps and remove early in spring.
