The trees we see most in Wheat Ridge
Wheat Ridge canopy is dominated by large silver maple, elm, honeylocust and the last of the untreated ash along 38th Avenue and the Applewood edge. That shapes how we approach tree health & plant care here rather than applying one generic method everywhere.
Wheat Ridge lots are deep and often shared by two or three mature trees, with alley access behind many blocks along 38th Avenue. Several properties still have irrigation ditches and old outbuildings we work around.

Tree Health & Plant Care in Wheat Ridge: common questions
Can my ash tree be saved from emerald ash borer?
If the canopy is less than about 30% thinned, treatment on a two-year cycle is usually effective and far cheaper than removal plus replanting. Beyond that, we recommend removal.
Why is my tree losing leaves early?
In our climate the usual culprits are drought stress, planting depth, girdling roots or compacted soil — not disease. We check those first before recommending any spray or injection.
How much should I water an established tree?
Roughly 10 gallons per inch of trunk diameter, applied slowly at the drip line, twice a month in the growing season and once a month in winter on days above 40°F.
