There are many different words when it comes to the great outdoors and looking after gardens, flowers, trees and plants. But what do they all actually do?
Arboriculture - it sounds like a complicated word, doesn’t it?
Do you know what it means?
Kind of a mixture between arborist, culture and horticulture perhaps?
Well, if you’ve ever wondered what the word ‘arboriculture’ actually means, you’re in the right place!
We are going to look at some of the key plant and tree specialists in the Northern Beaches, and what they do as part of their day to day jobs.
What Does Arboriculture Mean?
Arboriculture services in the Northern Beaches relate to the growing, caring for and raising of trees, woody plants and shrubs.
An arborist’s overall goal is the wellbeing of any tree or plant in question.
An experienced arborist provides arboriculture services in the Northern Beaches including:
tree transplanting
tree planting
tree branch pruning
fertilising and mulching trees
diagnosing and treating diseases
controlling insect infestations
treating cavities
treating tree damage
some landscaping duties
tree stump removal or stump grinding
tree removal in the Northern Beaches Council
using their knowledge to advise on which tree species will thrive in any particular position
Overall, an arborist is a qualified tree specialist in the Northern Beaches who assesses, maintains and cares for trees.
Looking after trees also ensures that wildlife habitats are kept intact and healthy – it’s not just about the tree itself!
What About A Horticulturist?
In contrast to arboriculture which focuses heavily on the care of trees and woody plants, horticulturists generally focus on food and crop cultivation in flowers, spices, vegetables and fruits.
They manage soil and grass along with managing weed and pest infestations outside.
Their heavy focus on crops and growing produce means horticulturists can provide expert advice on maximizing crops and different harvesting techniques.
Some horticulturalists have other specialties such as landscaping and flower arrangements.
