After the heatwave has passed, look closely at your trees to see if they are recovering. If you don’t notice any signs of improvement, contact Tree North Industries for a consultation.
Keep in mind that heat stress can have lasting effects on a tree – some symptoms may not appear until years later. If your trees have made it through a heatwave, it’s doubly important to ensure that they receive regular and appropriate care and maintenance for at least the next few years.
If you notice wilting, drooping, curling or browning leaves, don’t assume it’s due to lack of water.
Over-watering will NOT help the tree recover (remember, it’s not taking up much water while it’s heat stressed). Instead, it can lead to root rot and fungal diseases which will further harm the tree.
As we mentioned, it can be difficult to tell if a tree is suffering from heat stress or from a disease or pest infestation. If you’re not sure contact us to schedule a tree inspection. We can help diagnose the issue and help you keep your trees healthy.

Hedges can offer plenty of privacy and can provide good shade.
They can grow quickly and be challenging to maintain by becoming unsightly and unruly.
Non-flowering hedges like Laurel and Cedar Hedges should be trimmed more frequently, but should only be trimmed as needed depending on their growth. Typically, this averages out to a hedge trimming at least twice a year usually Spring and Fall.
Flowering hedges in Alberta, you’ll want to get the hedge trimming done less frequently. It will depend on when they bloom. If your hedges bloom in the spring, wait until after they’ve fully bloomed. Why would you want to cut it before it flowers anyway? If your hedges bloom in the summer, then you can do the hedge trimming in the fall after they bloom or in the spring as the growing season commences – just make sure it’s not right before they bloom.
Start thinking about booking in your next hedge trim to keep those lines clean
