"This is my second experience with Angi. The first was EXCELLENT. This was the opposite. I hired Romero Landscape to do an initial trim and clean-up of my yard, followed by service every 2-3 weeks. His guys (not the guy I had been corresponding with) finally arrived today (after lots of back and forth and many texts left unanswered) while I was away from home and cut back my jasmine bushes and my raised garden bed (I was clear the raised garden bed was not part of the job). No weed pulling. No tree trimming (I was clear that was the main thing I needed). Clipped two irrigation lines. Made a small effort to clean up. So, I texted saying, "I'm assuming someone is coming back tomorrow to finish the job." I got a bunch of angry aggressive texts and ended up blocking him. Ugh. There's obviously a reason they only have one review. LESSON LEARNED."

Tree Service questions, answered by experts

Using a drill to bore holes in the stump's center speeds up the process, whatever method you use. If you don’t have a drill, you can still chainsaw or chisel the stump to make it hollow; it will just take more elbow grease and time. Steer clear of burning the stump to hollow it if you can’t drill some holes in it first. Otherwise, getting it to light, stay lit, and burn right through will be a challenge.

Maple trees start the growing season by developing small groups of red flowers where the tree's fruit, the samaras, will appear in the coming weeks. Later in spring, the samaras, which many call whirlybirds or similar names, develop into single-winged seed carriers that spin when falling or drifting in the wind. 

If it’s your property, then you can plant a tree near power lines, but it’s not the best idea. Any vegetation that grows within 10 feet or so of power lines will fall under the responsibility of the utility company, and they may trim or remove it as necessary. If you do move forward with your plan, try to choose a smaller ornamental tree, plant it as far away from the power lines as you can, and keep it trimmed to avoid future problems.

If an arborist is certified by the International Society of Arboriculture (ISA), the highest level of certification available is ISA Board Certified Master Arborist. According to the ISA, this credential is reserved for arborists “who have reached the pinnacle of their profession.” Check your arborist’s credentials before hiring to confirm their level of training and expertise.

In most ways, palm trees are incredibly low-maintenance. They don’t need a ton of water—which is why they’re so beloved in desert regions—and they basically prune themselves. But they do need an ample supply of sunlight and to be in soil that will allow for proper drainage so that their roots don’t become waterlogged and at risk of developing illnesses.

If the plant begins to wilt, develop spots, or change color, these could all be signs that your palm tree has a disease. But a few basic treatments, like pruning and applying fungicide, will usually be more than enough to return it to perfect health.
