Join us for a practical, timely class on caring for your trees in the unique climate of Dallas. We’ll cover what you need to know for late-winter and early-spring tree maintenance, including how to prune safely (and what not to prune right now), how to identify and manage freeze damage, and best practices for fertilizing, mulching, and planting before the warm season arrives. With ongoing confusion around oak pruning restrictions and the growing issue of topping crape myrtles, this session will offer clear, research‑based guidance to help you keep your trees healthy and resilient all year long. Perfect for homeowners, gardeners, and anyone looking to improve their landscape stewardship skills.
