"My trees looked very healthy after being treated by these arborists. Had to get over the "sticker shock" as we didn't budget for this extravagant expense. I reasoned that it was better to "bit the bullet" than replace the trees."

"Francisco and his guys went above and beyond my expectations. As stated in other reviews, he was prompt and professional. The three palm trees I wanted gone were down and away within 12 hours of me first contacting him. His price was more than fair and he even cut down two more dying trees and two bougainvillea bushes while he was here for a more than reasonable price. He has many other services than just tree removal and his company is the only one I will use moving forward when it comes to my yard. Thank you again Francisco!!"

"Jose responded to my inquiry promptly, setting an appointment the next day. There was a lot of clean up to do as our previous landscaper was lackadaisical. Jose spent 2 days here and was also able to get another professional to trim our palm trees. We have hired him on a weekly basis, looking forward to our yard looking more presentable without my husband having to trim bushes etc."

"The Arborist who initially looks at the tree is good, and the work crew was great. I had issues trying to reach the office staff to re-schedule an appointment."

"I hired them to trim 4 trees. They did a pretty good job. Kind of butchered one of them though. They left some small limbs hanging in 2 of the trees that should have been cut off. I was at work and I had my son pay them and tipped them too! Then I was a bit disappointed when I got home."

"Jack the arborist was great! Came out to personally inspect and gave a good estimate. Was up front with our options to get done what we wanted to get done (the tree removal was large). The office customer service was also prompt and thorough. Project and cleanup was done swiftly and cleanly."

Arborists questions, answered by experts

Completely topping a plum tree is a risky business. Cut too much, and you’ll kill your tree. That said, you do need to trim the top of your tree to encourage bushy growth, maintain your tree’s vase shape, and limit size. 

A plum tree's central leader (or trunk) should never extend more than 3 feet above the highest branch. When you first plant your tree, cut the central leader so it’s 2 to 3 feet tall. As it grows, cut it back 12 to 20 inches until it reaches its desired height. Never prune more than one-third of the new growth.

Ivy eventually kills trees by restricting its growth, blocking sunlight, absorbing nutrients and water from the soil, and weakening the tree. Trees with ivy are more likely to experience diseases, pests, rot, and fungi growth. When ivy weighs down tree branches, the tree is more likely to break during a storm and cause damage.

Before you cut down a dead palm tree, try to revive it using the methods listed above. However, there are instances when it makes sense to remove a dead palm tree, including:

  • The heavily infected tree will infect nearby trees, bushes, and plants.

  • The palm’s roots are overtaking your yard, foundation, and sidewalk and causing structural damage.

  • The tree is unstable and a hazard to your property, your neighbor’s property, and pedestrians.

The shepherd’s tree, native to the Kalahari Desert in Africa, holds the record for the deepest known tree roots at over 230 feet deep. Some African communities refer to it as the “Tree of Life” since it provides food, shade, and medicinal properties to the surrounding community.

You should avoid cutting off the top of mature cherry trees. This process is called tree topping, and it’s not recommended for cherry trees—or any trees, for that matter. Tree topping removes between one-third to half of the length of the tree trunk, resulting in structurally unsound, fruitless suckers. The only exception is for saplings. Young pie, sour, and tart cherry trees that are over 30 inches tall in the fall or winter before the tree blooms can benefit from heading cuts.
