Q: Can a broken tree branch grow roots?

• <div><p>Large, established tree branches won&rsquo;t grow roots, but if you find a young tree branch that&rsquo;s less than about a year old, you&rsquo;ve got a shot. Put it in water or soil as soon as possible for best results. You&rsquo;ll know the branch is viable if it&rsquo;s about the thickness of a pencil and has some leaves or needles.</p></div>

Q: How can you tell the difference between hard maple and soft maple?

• <div><p>You may be looking to identify maple trees to use for home improvement projects. In that case, you can tell hard maples by looking at their leaves. Leaves will have a U-shaped dip, or sinus, between the points, or lobes, of the leaves. Leaves of soft maples tend to have V-shaped sinuses.</p><p>If you already have the cut wood in front of you, look for a light, uniform color to identify hard maple wood and check for variations of red, gray, or brown streaks and an overall darker color in soft maple wood.</p></div>

Q: What do I do if my neighbor is complaining about dead trees?

• <div><p>Your neighbor is not in a good position to know if your trees are truly dead or pose any kind of danger. That&rsquo;s why hiring an arborist or tree service expert can be such an important part of the process. If the trees are still alive and don&rsquo;t pose any threat, you&rsquo;re in the clear (but you may want to document and photograph everything in case events turn sour down the road).</p><p>But if a tree is visibly dead and near the property line, you should remove it to be safe. If a dead tree falls on a neighbor&rsquo;s property, they may have grounds to sue for negligence. If any branches on trees have died, it&rsquo;s a good idea to cut them back for similar reasons.</p></div>

Q: Can you transplant all types of trees?

• <div><p>Most trees can be successfully transplanted while they are young, but pines, walnuts, and some oak tree varieties are more difficult to move because their root systems grow deeper than most other trees. Also, trees adapted to sandy soil with wide root systems like beeches, willows, and aspens are harder to dig out because their roots spread much farther out from the trunk. In these cases, unless the trees are very young and small, it&rsquo;s a good idea to consult a tree planting professional.</p></div>

Q: What trees should not be pruned in winter?

• <div><p>Trees that flower in the spring&mdash;like dogwood, cherry, magnolia, and pear&mdash;should not be pruned during the winter. These spring-flowering plants grow buds on old growth, so you&rsquo;ll actually remove what would&rsquo;ve been gorgeous flowering foliage. Instead, wait to prune until right after they bloom, when the flowers fade.</p></div>

They do a great job with unit change outs. I have had issues with there duct work in the past but service work and change outs always go smooth. I think I have bought at least twenty units from them. They treated me right.
