The unofficial start to summer is here! Bring on those sunny days – filled with picnics, hikes, cookouts and all those outdoor adventures we look forward to all year.

Though, we wouldn’t enjoy those moments nearly as much without our trees! 

Emerald ash borer (EAB) is one small pest that has caused a lot of damage.

Since the bug’s debut in the USA in 2002, our Davey Institute scientists have been researching the best way to control emerald ash borer.

Think back to the day you planted your Arbor Day beauty.

You did your research to find the perfect planting spot for the perfect tree.

23,000 – that’s how many different types of Spartanburg trees there are in the world, according to North Carolina State University.

The diversity of Spartanburg trees is in a word… amazing.

Arbor Day is our absolute favorite holiday of the year at Davey Tree. Though, you may have been able to guess that!

Every Arbor Day, we get to share our love of Spartanburg trees at events all over the country.

You want your Spartanburg tree to be its best. To grow larger. To live longer. To look better. 

For that to happen, you need to care for it throughout the seasons.

Our pines and evergreens are often some of our favorite Spartanburg trees in the yard.

No matter the season or weather, they’re always there to brighten our day with a pop of green.

In under 60 seconds, we could think of 60 reasons why you should plant a Spartanburg tree this Arbor Day.

We’re highlighting one reason today. Plant a Spartanburg tree to protect your skin with Nature’s Sunscreen.
