"J.E.M Landscaping did an incredible job on my front and back yard for the final cut and clean-up before winter. Everything looks so neat and refreshed! The lawn is perfectly trimmed, the edges are sharp, and they made sure all the leaves and debris were completely cleared out. They were professional, efficient, and clearly take pride in their work. It feels great heading into winter knowing my yard is in such great shape. I highly recommend J.E.M Landscaping to anyone looking for dependable, high-quality landscaping services!"

"First of all, an actual person called me to discuss the project and came out the same day to give an estimate. We had an overgrown jungle of a backyard and several other areas of the yard that desperately needed attention. Delilah, at Phoenix Solutions was very helpful, kind and accomodating. Her communications regarding the job were professional, thorough and she made sure everything went smoothly. We are very happy with their work and they exceeded our expectations!"

"Ramos Tree service did a fabulous ? job. His prices were reasonable. They cleaned up after themselves and came back the next day as promised to remove the stump. The only thing I didn't like is we agreed on the work being done at 3 pm, and they showed up at 8 am.I had to leave them at my home because I had something else to do. Other than that, they were fantastic, and I will use again and / or recommend them."

Arborists questions, answered by experts

Pruning can impact cold hardiness—but it’s less about the exact temperature and more about temperature variation. Generally, you don’t want to prune trees when there’s a risk of temperatures suddenly dropping from 50 to 60 degrees Fahrenheit to 0 degrees Fahrenheit or below. A tree is most sensitive until 48 hours after it’s pruned.

Unfortunately, palm tree stumps are one of the most difficult types to remove due to how their roots grow. Unlike other trees, palm tree roots grow horizontally and vertically. Palm tree roots grow as deep as three feet into the ground, although soil and growing conditions could mean they go as far as 50 inches into the earth. 

If you want to be able to repurpose the grass in the area where you removed a stump later, you’ll have to dig quite deep—and perhaps wide—to trim away all the roots.

It will take you anywhere from 15 minutes to two hours per tree stump to grind and remove the stump from the ground. The larger the size, the longer it will take to remove the stump. Also, keep in mind that rocky soil may require local excavation services to loosen up large boulders before you can begin to remove the tree stump.

It depends on the type of tree. Typically, late spring on the cusp of winter is ideal for trees about to emerge from dormancy and produce new buds. That said, late fall is ideal for certain deciduous trees prone to bleeding sap. Avoid trimming trees in early spring, when they’re prone to disease.

Not all evergreen conifers need to be pruned, but some do. Pruning pine trees is not necessary, but you can do so during June and July if you wish. On the other hand, spruce, firs, and junipers do need to be pruned from late winter to early spring.
