Restore Color. Rebuild Health. Protect Your Investment.
Iron chlorosis is one of the most common—and most misunderstood—tree health problems in Northern Utah. Those pale yellow leaves with green veins are not just cosmetic issues. They are signs that your tree is struggling to access essential nutrients in challenging soil conditions.
Our iron chlorosis treatment programs are designed to correct the problem at its source, restore rich green color, and rebuild long-term tree strength. When treated correctly, chlorotic trees can recover, thrive, and remain valuable landscape assets for decades.
We treat soil chemistry and root-zone limitations, not just surface symptoms.
Every tree receives a plan based on species, soil conditions, and stress level.
Our methods are designed specifically for alkaline, high-pH environments.
Iron chlorosis occurs when trees cannot absorb enough usable iron from the soil—even when iron is present. In Utah’s alkaline soils, iron becomes chemically unavailable to roots, leading to nutrient starvation.
Common causes include:
High soil pH
Excess calcium and salts
Compacted root zones
Poor drainage
Construction disturbance
Over-irrigation
Without proper treatment, affected trees decline year after year, becoming more vulnerable to pests, disease, and structural failure.
Many treatments provide short-term greening without solving the underlying soil problem. Trees look better for a season—then decline again.
Our consulting-based model integrates:
Soil chemistry analysis
Root health evaluation
Drainage and irrigation review
Species-specific response planning
Long-term monitoring
This ensures treatments last longer, perform better, and protect tree health year after year.
In Utah’s difficult soils, precision makes all the difference.
Professional chlorosis treatment is a targeted, science-based process that restores nutrient availability and improves root function. Unlike retail products or surface sprays, our methods deliver iron directly where roots can absorb it and remain effective over time.
Comprehensive Diagnosis
We confirm that iron deficiency is the true cause by evaluating leaf patterns, soil conditions, and site factors before treatment begins.
Customized Treatment Design
Each treatment plan is tailored to the tree species, soil chemistry, and severity of symptoms for maximum effectiveness.
Targeted Application Methods
Iron is delivered directly into the root zone or vascular system using professional equipment for reliable absorption.
Soil Improvement & Conditioning
We address compaction, drainage, and high pH conditions that limit nutrient availability
Seasonal Timing & Optimization
Treatments are scheduled during periods of peak uptake to improve results and recovery speed.
Ongoing Monitoring & Adjustment
Tree response is monitored and treatment plans are refined as needed to support long-term health.
All assessments are performed exclusively by our ISA certified arborists with years of field experience, never delegated to sales representatives or unqualified personnel. You get comprehensive professional evaluation with thorough documentation that satisfies insurance requirements and legal standards.
We respond to all consultation inquiries within 24 hours and complete on-site evaluations within one week of your initial contact. Urgent tree hazard situations receive immediate attention to safeguard your property and ensure safety.
Our consultation fees are presented transparently from the start with zero hidden costs or unexpected charges. Every treatment proposal includes comprehensive pricing details so you can make informed decisions about your tree care investment.
If our consultation or treatment outcomes don’t meet your expectations we’ll take immediate action to resolve any issues. We’re committed to building long term relationships based on trust and results, not short term transactions.
Early treatment of iron chlorosis is one of the most important factors in successful tree recovery. When nutrient deficiencies are addressed at the first signs of yellowing, trees are able to maintain strong photosynthesis, steady growth, and natural defense systems. Delayed treatment allows stress to compound year after year, weakening root systems, reducing energy reserves, and increasing vulnerability to pests, disease, and structural failure. What begins as a cosmetic issue can quickly become a long-term health problem that is far more expensive and difficult to correct. Acting early preserves canopy density, protects property value, and prevents unnecessary decline.
Choosing our firm for early chlorosis treatment means placing your trees in the hands of specialists who understand Utah’s soils, climate, and species responses. We do not rely on temporary products or guesswork. Our treatments are based on accurate diagnosis, professional application methods, and long-term management strategies that deliver lasting results. Clients trust us because we focus on permanent improvement, not seasonal greening. By partnering with us early, you give your trees the best opportunity to recover fully, remain resilient, and continue adding beauty and value to your landscape for years to come.
Emerald Ash Borer has destroyed over 50 million trees across North America—and it’s rapidly approaching Utah. Every day you wait is another day closer to losing your ash trees forever. Our prevention treatment is 100% effective when started early, but once symptoms appear, it’s too late. Schedule your risk assessment today.

See what Northern Utah property owners say about working with arborists who put trees first.
No. Iron chlorosis can be effectively managed long-term with proper soil correction and maintenance. While Utah’s soils remain alkaline, professional treatment programs keep iron available and trees healthy.
Many trees show visible improvement within weeks of treatment, with full canopy recovery often occurring over one or two growing seasons.
Most retail products provide short-term greening but do not correct soil chemistry. Professional treatments are more stable and longer-lasting.
When used appropriately and professionally, trunk injection can be effective for severe cases. We use it selectively and only when biologically justified.
Some trees require annual treatment, while others may only need periodic maintenance. We design schedules based on response and site conditions.
Yes. Chronic chlorosis weakens trees over time, reducing growth, increasing disease risk, and shortening lifespan.
We service properties across Northern Utah, including Salt Lake City, Davis County, Weber County, Summit County, Ogden, Morgan County and the Ogden Valley.
