"I needed trees trimmed, some very tall, all of them too difficult to do myself. I used YELP and posted a request. The first to respond was C & H Gardens Artistic Landscape and Tree Service. I set-up an appointment for the next day. The doorbell rang, the dog barked, and as I looked up from my computer, I gasped. Was I hallucinating or is that Brad Pitt at my door!? He was a young Brad Pitt. Could this be Brad's prodigal son? I opened the door and tried to stay calm. It was Kacen Horner from C & H. I told him what we needed done. He gave me a fair price. We scheduled the service and off he went into the sunset. His crew came on time and knew what I needed to be done, and got to work. They did a great job - efficient, friendly, and professional. It was amazing to watch one of them repel up a 45 foot palm tree and back down. They had a truck with a tree chopper, cleaned up my front and backyard. Complete! Kacen came by the next day to check on their work and to confirm I w"

Arborists FAQs, answered by experts

Professionals use assessments, strategic cuts, specialized equipment, and safety measures to ensure healthy growth or the safe removal of trees or shrubs.

Unlike some fruit trees, such as apple, sweet cherry, or pear that require at least two trees for pollination, most peach trees are self-pollinating. This means you can plant just one tree and still expect it to produce fruit, typically within two to four years. For best results, consult with a local landscaper to choose the right peach tree variety for your specific climate, soil type, and yard layout.

A tree branch should start to form roots in about three months. It can take about a year for a tree branch to develop roots strong enough to go in the ground. For best results, start several branches because, no matter how closely you follow instructions, they won’t all form roots. Compost any that aren’t thriving.

For Bradford pears, damage from storms is common, and if the trunk splits, it can pose a danger to people and surrounding structures. The best thing to do in that instance is to have the tree removed. If there’s only minor damage to the branches, pruning away the damaged parts is the first order of business. You may also want to consult a professional arborist to make sure the tree is healthy.

A tree growing close to a house can pose several risks, but removal isn't always the only or best solution. Potential problems include roots growing into the foundation and causing structural cracks, branches damaging the roof or promoting moss growth, and debris clogging gutters, which can lead to water damage. Trees can also provide access for pests and encourage mold. However, a small, healthy tree may not be a problem, and for larger, established trees, strategic trimming can be a cheaper and more beneficial alternative to removal. It is generally recommended to take action for trees within 10 to 20 feet of your home, especially if they are unhealthy or encroaching. Your best bet is to consult a professional arborist who can assess the specific situation and provide expert advice.
