Mulch around the base of the tree or add a layer of compost or a layer of leaf mold to optimize the organic materials in soil, taking care to stay away from the trunk. Remove damaged, diseased, or rubbing branches that will create open wounds for pathogens to enter. Watch for signs of borers and small insects. Have a treatment plan ready.
