"After being told there was no help for my very favorite tree, it was sick and dying quickly. I came across this gentleman Anthony, owner of Glowing Seasons. After a simple conversation he gave me hope with the knowledge he had in tree care for sick trees. I decided to hire him and his services. My tree is looking lively, and has tons of NEW growth. Since, I have had him working and on other projects in my yard and I cant express how happy I am! He has done the following: Tree Services ( purple plums, and sycamores), added a large patch of new seed and soil for grass, and monthly yard maintenance contract, added in an irrigation system into new gardening area and in above ground planters. I currently have Anthony hired to maintain my yard and would not have it t any other way. He extremely knowledgeable and helpful. He is professional and appears to take extreme pride is in work!"
You need to remove all branches affected by Dutch elm disease. If your tree has several affected branches, you will probably need to remove the entire tree. First, consult a pro to be sure that you’ve correctly identified it as an elm tree.Make sure the tree is properly disposed of with a plastic covering or through debarking, chipping, or burning.
There are a few instances in which removing a tree is the best option. You might do this if the tree looks to be a major danger—potentially falling onto your home, your car, or other parts of your property—or it’s diseased beyond repair. A tree that is growing too close to your house might need to be removed to prevent mold growth.
In most cases, leaving tree roots underground is not a problem if the stump has been removed or ground below the soil. However, some larger roots may decompose, leaving dents in your soil. Additionally, some aggressive trees, including willows, oaks, elms, maples, and poplars may grow back from roots. Large aggressive trees with established root systems are more likely to grow back.
Unfortunately, palm tree stumps are one of the most difficult types to remove due to how their roots grow. Unlike other trees, palm tree roots grow horizontally and vertically. Palm tree roots grow as deep as three feet into the ground, although soil and growing conditions could mean they go as far as 50 inches into the earth.
If you want to be able to repurpose the grass in the area where you removed a stump later, you’ll have to dig quite deep—and perhaps wide—to trim away all the roots.
After a big storm, you may not be sure if a tree was struck or not. Look for the telltale long scars, like strips or gouges in the bark of the tree, running in sometimes jagged lines down the length of the trunk. These scars will often show vulnerable living wood inside the tree. It’s also common to see scorched or wilted leaves on the side or top of the tree where lightning struck.
