Area of Specialization

Research is directed toward tree and shrub production practices and their impact on the rate of establishment in the landscape. Production practices include pruning strategies, irrigation amount and frequency, fertilizer placement and source and rate, root pruning of field-grown trees, and non-traditional container shapes and practices. Major focuses include root morphology in response to the environment, root growth and water stress after planting, and evaluation and modeling of the factors that influence rate of tree establishment in the landscape. The impact of landscape tree pruning on tree biology and response is a growing part of my research and education programs since the late 1990s.
