"Vision is great to work with! They exceeded my expectations on a walkway and garden bed rebuild. I plan to hire them again in the spring to do another walkway install in the back yard and for shrub planting."

"We had 5 trees plus small ones taken down . One by my road and brush also, two giant Oaks out back of my house plus a couple of others that were dead. Seamus was great to work with and his tree cutter Cooper was great at landing the trees not to hit anything near house or road. He did reschedule because of equipment to be repaired but, he did show up on the next scheduled work day. At this time of my work he worked alone after trees were cut, but was VERY efficient and cleaned up when complete. I used his guy for removing stumps out by the road very good and friendly."

"After a wind storm , a large pine tree fell in our yard, blocking the driveway. I call Bull Pine Tree service. They showed up, after a full day of work, friendly and willing to help. They cleared my driveway, neatly stacked the branches and logs to be picked up later. When they returned they removed the tree and all branches and even raked up the yard!! This is a very professional company with the experience to get these jobs done at a fair price. I appreciate a company that goes above and beyond! You canâ t go wrong with Jon and his crew, Iâ d definitely hire them again!!"

Arborists questions, answered by experts

Only trim palm trees as needed, which is usually about once per year. However, don't stick to that schedule if the palm tree doesn't need it. Avoid trimming palm trees when possible. It’s best to trim palm trees only when you notice a buildup of dead fronds. That said, leave the brown fronds during the dormant season because this organic matter helps protect the tree from the cooler weather.

Palm tree stumps can take as long as seven to ten years to rot naturally. Whereas some tree stumps rot within a year, palm trees tend to last longer due to their deep root networks. Chemical rotting (described above) can help speed the process up so your palm tree stumps rot in under two months.

Trees don’t usually grow back after being cut down. Some particularly robust tree species may start sending up new stems from a stump to recover, but those stems won’t become a “tree” like before. Generally, trees don’t recover from being entirely cut down, which is why it’s important to be careful when making a decision. When you cut down a tree, it’s a good idea to make plans to remove the stump, even if it’s unlikely to grow back.

If you’re looking to rot a tree stump fast, potassium nitrate will work far quicker than copper nails. First, drill several holes into the stump using a power drill, then pour potassium nitrate pellets into the holes. Next, add water to help the chemical absorb into the wood, thoroughly soaking the stump to ensure the pellets dissolve and spread evenly. Afterward, cover the stump with a tarp to retain moisture and block sunlight, then place mulch on top to secure it in place.

How often and long you should water a tree depends on the species and if it is mature or newly planted. The amount of water is also based on the tree's size. A good rule of thumb is approximately 5 gallons per inch of the trunk's diameter.

Adjusting watering to the recommended suggestions for the tree type and weather conditions is vital. For instance, watering trees during a drought is necessary, and you may need to water more frequently than usual.
