Tree Pit Irrigation and Aeration

Tree Pit Irrigation and Aeration

Correct tree irrigation is vital for the healthy growth of trees.  By far the biggest contributor to the high mortality rates suffered by urban trees is drought stress. The water from efficient tree irrigation is required not only for all the biochemical processes involved in photosynthesis, respiration and transport but also for mechanical support to leaf and stem tissue.  Insufficient (or inefficient) tree watering will result in loss of leaf turgor and a consequent reduction in new shoot extension. Eventually, this will lead to die-back and, if not remedied, the loss of the tree.

The Snorkil aeration and irrigation product is an integrated component of the Citygreen urban tree system, providing essential water and oxygen exchange within the tree’s root zone. Available in a number of styles, the range consists of; Snorkil Plaza and Snorkil Rondo, both in single, double, and custom sizes

“Our experience, in working with a Citygreen Design Studio was second to none. We found responses from the design studio to be very timely, and technically thorough. We went backwards and forwards a number of times, looking at different iterations of the design and, nothing was too much trouble to examine and explore different possibilities. I would highly recommend the Citygreen Design Studio to any future client considering using your services.”
