Do evergreens need to be tied together for winter protection against snow to prevent breakage? A. In Utah County we have considerable quantities of snow during the winter months, So evergreens that have not been sheare‘i properly during the growing season need to be protected bytying for prevention of snow from damageto the branches. We recommend that only strings be used to tie the evergreens. If you use burlap, which is wide andthick,it will cause a burningcondition to the tree underneath.If you have evergreens thattend to lay down when snow covers them,it is, therefore, advisable for you to tie them. A good twine string is the best. Butin the longrun,it is better to train your evergreens to grow strong and compact so that theywill not need to be tied. Theonly wayto dothis is to shear them properly each spring so they will grow thickontheinsideof the tree andwill not be sprawling and weak in the branches. If you need further information on how to prune your evergreens in the spring, please call the county Extension Serviceoffice.
