Ice-Resistant Trees<\/h1>\n\n\n\n

Ice-resistant tree species are those that are genetically\nand structurally capable of withstanding the harsh effects of heavy ice and\nsnow accumulation on branches and limbs. Basically, ice-resistant trees are\nless prone to snapping and breakage as a result of ice storm damage or excessive\nwinter precipitation.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Broad-leafed tree species are especially prone to winter ice\nstorm damage because they tend to develop wide crowns, also known as decurrent\nbranching<\/em>, which increases their vulnerability to ice damage. Such tree\nspecies include the Silver Maple, Black Cherry, Bradford Pear, Pin Oak, American\nelm, Siberian elm, Green Ash, Honey Locust, Black Locust, and the Common Hackberry.\n<\/p>\n\n\n\n
