Houston sits on heavy expansive clay — locally called gumbo — that swells when wet and shrinks hard in drought. That single fact drives most of what goes wrong with trees here. Root zones stay saturated through a wet spring, then the clay contracts in August and pulls away from the roots, so the same tree can show drowning and drought stress in one season. Poor deep drainage also keeps root systems shallower than homeowners expect, which matters enormously when a tropical system arrives and the ground is already soft.
Hurricane season runs June through November, and whole trees uproot here rather than simply shedding limbs, because saturated clay holds a root plate loosely. The trees that fail are usually the ones that were already compromised — codominant stems, decayed bases, heavy end weight on long laterals. Structural work done in winter is worth far more than anything attempted once a storm is named.
Live oaks and red oaks dominate many neighbourhoods, which makes the oak wilt calendar a real constraint rather than a nicety. The Texas A&M Forest Service advises against pruning oaks from February through June, when the beetles that spread the fungus are most active.
