As the heat of summer begins to wane, South East Queensland prepares for the transition into autumn. This change in season brings a shift in the behavior of our trees, signaling a time of preparation and adaptation. Let's explore what autumn means for our trees in this vibrant region.


The Colours of Change

Autumn paints our landscape with a stunning array of colors as leaves transition from vibrant greens to rich hues of red, orange, and gold. Trees such as the Liquidambar, Chinese Pistachio, and Crepe Myrtle showcase nature's artistry, creating a picturesque scene across parks and gardens.


Shedding the Old

During autumn, deciduous trees prepare for winter by shedding their leaves. This natural process, known as abscission, allows trees to conserve energy and protect themselves from the colder months ahead. As leaves fall, they blanket the ground, providing nutrients as they decompose and enriching the soil for new growth.


Preparing for Dormancy

For many trees, autumn is a time of dormancy—a period of rest and conservation. Deciduous trees slow their growth, directing their energy inward to strengthen roots and prepare for the challenges of winter. Evergreens, on the other hand, continue their steady growth, adapting to the changing conditions while maintaining their lush foliage.


Pruning and Maintenance

Autumn is an ideal time for tree pruning and maintenance in South East Queensland. With the cooler temperatures and reduced risk of heat stress, trees benefit from expert trimming to remove deadwood, improve structure, and promote healthy growth. Proper pruning techniques help trees thrive, ensuring their vitality in the seasons to come.


Storm Preparation

As autumn progresses, South East Queensland residents also prepare for the possibility of storms. With the potential for severe weather events, it's essential to assess trees for any signs of weakness or instability. Removing overhanging branches, securing loose limbs, and reinforcing tree support systems can mitigate the risk of storm-related damage.
