Wonder why some trees have white paint on their branches? It’s not just a random choice; it’s a clever trick with a strong message about the trees. The paint color serves as a code revealing crucial information about the tree’s future and health. Trees with orange dots might face the axe, while purple markings signify “no trespassing” or private land. However, white paint is a different story. Applied in winter, it acts as a natural sunscreen, shielding tree trunks from sunburn caused by fluctuating temperatures.
Tree planters use water-based latex paint, diluted appropriately to ensure even coverage. This method protects against cracks and splits caused by rapid temperature changes. Typically applied once a year, the white paint serves as a guardian for trees, highlighting the care invested in maintaining their health and growth. Next time you spot a tree with a fresh coat of white paint, remember someone is looking out for our green companions!
