"When we talked about trimming the trees, we both knew it would be a task and that the end result may not look good, which I knew and agreed. Dead limbs needed to be trimmed from the trees and general maintenance of the trees. When they finished, they actually looked pretty nice! They did a nice job of cleanup and respect of the property."

"Tyler did a great job of quickly coming out and removing a large broken tree limb before someone got hurt. He was quick, efficient, and was willing to do whatever was needed to make the area safe. The work was done by tree climbing, so no destruction to our lawn. He cleaned up and made our yard a safer place for our kids to play. He was genuine, kind, and caring throughout the entire process. Rooted will be my first call should we need any of their services completed."

"I can not reccomend Green Tree enough. Over the years working in real estate I have worked with several tree companies on various projects. Most great some not so much. Green Tree surpassed them all. I will reccomend them to all my clients moving forward. The care the took with mine and my neighbors property while removing a large portion of a giant maple was exquisite. They had to bring in a large boom, and made sure to cover the ground with plywood to not tear up our yards. The safety equipment they had in place was also impressive. All for a very fair price. Don't hesitate to give this awesome team a call!"

Tree Service questions, answered by experts

It takes anywhere from three to seven years for a stump to decompose on its own. This timeframe can depend on the kind of tree and your climate. The lower to the ground the stump is, the faster it rots. If you kill a tree stump with salt, boiling water, herbicide, light deprivation, or burning, the tree stump decomposes faster. 

The exact answer to this question depends on which region of the country you’re talking about, but according to various tree counts, some of the most common types of trees in the United States include red maple, Douglas fir, quaking aspen, loblolly pine, and sweetgum.

You can remove a small tree from your yard if there’s space for the tree to fall, you have the right tools and safety equipment, and you follow a clear plan of action. You’ll just want to follow the steps above carefully, and ideally, you will have experience doing similar tasks. If you have any doubts that you can do this project safely, though, you should hire a pro.

Generally, you’ll want to prune back the trunk by 1 to 2 feet each year to promote bushy growth. Doing so concentrates vegetative buds closer to the bottom of the tree, where you can easily harvest fruit. For side shoots that are a year old, leave at least six leaves. 

Never remove more than 30% of a tree’s foliage during pruning—even if your tree is really overgrown. Removing this much foliage at a time could kill your tree.

Absolutely. These steps are significantly easier, too, especially when it comes to preserving the root ball and moving the palm tree. However, you will want to make sure the tree has plenty of fertilizer to establish itself and start growing. Supports may also be more important, as it can take extra time for a potted palm to spread out its roots. If you are transferring a palm to another pot, you’ll want to move up a size or two to a larger pot. Make sure the pot has excellent drainage to keep the palm from getting waterlogged.
