Bungendore, Braidwood, Yass, and Michelago are well known for their charming country gardens, graced by old and picturesque trees like oaks, elms, and gum trees. Some of these trees have been standing for over a hundred years and if you are like me then you want them to survive for the next generation. To maintain their beauty and health, it’s essential to hire an experienced arborist who specialises in caring for country gardens and understands how important trees are to the landowner.
While there may be many tree loppers available, it’s important to find an arborist with the expertise to assess tree health, ensure safety, and evaluate fire risks. A well-trained arborist will carefully balance your trees to prevent issues like rot, splitting, or falling branches, while also improving their appearance.

Here are some practical tips for maintaining trees in country gardens:
- Schedule regular tree inspections to catch any issues early.
- Apply a layer of mulch each year to help retain moisture and improve soil quality.
- Water deeply during the summer months to support tree health.
- Choose tree species native to the region for better adaptation to local conditions.
- Select trees that provide shade in summer and allow sunlight in winter.
- Opt for tree varieties resistant to diseases and pests to minimize maintenance needs.
- Plant fire-resistant trees near your home for added safety.
