"Edge and Ivory responded to my request quickly and next day came to our home for a free assessment. They quoted us fairly, and we were on the schedule within the week. They did an amazing job! Our yard is completely transformed, and they did exactly what we asked. We would recommend Edge and Ivory to anyone looking for landscaping services and look forward to future projects with them."

"The estimator arrived promptly when scheduled and provided a written estimate. We thought it was a bit expensive just to prune a tree but decided to hire them because: (a) we were unhappy with a different tree service's work we had used years before, (b) their city permit was up to date (according to the COS website), (c) they had insurance and offered to provide proof, and (d) mostly because they had satisfactorily removed a 50 foot cottonwood tree a year and a half earlier (although our cedar fence sustained some very minor damage from a falling branch, the supervisor immediately stopped work and brought the damage to my husband's attention, offering to repair it).
Based on the care that was taken before, we decided to hire Horton. We were surprised when the actual "arborist" arrived - late, claiming he was a tree doctor in a different country and turned our leafy tree into a "horticultural poodle". The main branches were stripped of small sprouts while leaving plumes of leaves at the ends. I was furious when I returned home in the evening to see most of the already thin canopy cut away.
I am not an arborist or even an experienced gardener ,so I hoped this was a trimming style that would take time to appreciate. It is not. The weight at the end of the branches resulted in many of them snapping off in high wind, especially weakened by the drought conditions. After 2 years and high hopes, I still have a tragic looking tree that I will have to pay someone to try and trim again and hopefully save. So, if you have a dead or dying tree, they were good at that aspect of tree service. Would I hire them to prune another tree? Absolutely not."

"John is an incredibly knowledgeable arborist who clearly understands trees and the issues they face here in Colorado. We had two pines that he ended up removing and replacing with Junipers. He gave us options to treat or replace. John took the time to walk through both options plus provided several tree replacement options to chose from. Highly recommend his expertise and honest approach."

"Ben arrived on time and went right to work. He was very polite and did a great job removing 4 Juniper Shrubs and trimming 2 Blue Spruce Trees up 6 feet. He also removed a small Pine Tree and hauled everything away. We would highly recommend Ben."

Arborists questions, answered by experts

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.

There are several methods to hollow out a tree stump, and the best one depends on your tools, experience, and priorities. Common methods include using a chisel and hammer, a chainsaw, or burning.

  • Chisel and Hammer: This is often considered the easiest approach for those with limited tools or experience, though it is the most time-consuming.

  • Chainsaw: Using a chainsaw is the fastest method, but it comes with significant safety risks, especially for inexperienced users.

  • Burning: This can be an effective method, but it is not recommended unless you can first drill holes into the stump. Without holes, the stump will be difficult to light and may not burn completely through.

A power drill with at least a ⅜-inch diameter bit can make the job quicker and easier, regardless of the primary method. While you can use a chisel or chainsaw without a drill, it will require more time and effort. Always wear protective goggles and thick gloves, as splinters are an inevitable risk.

The best way is to start controlling tree height long before it grows too large, via careful pruning through the years. But that’s not always possible. If a tree has become too high or too large, use selective pruning to remove the most troublesome branches, one by one, without topping the tree. Gently shaping a tree like this can, over time, correct problems. You can also find growth inhibitors to spray on a tree to stop it from growing too rapidly, but use these sparingly if at all.

Trimming a tree can take anywhere from just two hours to a full day, depending on the age of the tree, the number of trees, and the species. Young trees are generally easier to trim, as their branches are often thinner in diameter and easier to reach compared to mature trees. They also tend to be healthier. If you haven’t trimmed your trees before or it’s been a while, the process could take even longer.

Peach trees don’t tend to live as long as other types of trees and crops. They tend to last only about 12 years, and you shouldn’t expect to see a full peach harvest each of those years, either. Young peach trees need a few years to get established before they produce fruit, but you should have plenty of peaches for your pies and cobblers during their mature years, around years four through eight.
