Q: Can a tree grow back from a stump?

• <div><p>A tree can grow back from its stump, but full regrowth is unlikely (especially for more stubborn conifer trees).

Q: Is it OK to leave the tree stump?

• <div><p>Leaving the tree stump and letting it rot is never a good idea, as this leads to insect infestations and other frustrations. Additionally, decomposing trunks are at risk for diseases that spread out to the remaining plants and trees in the yard, thus ruining your whole outdoor aesthetic.

Q: What should I do when I see lightning strike one of my trees?

• <div><p>Stay inside or well away until the storm passes. Don&rsquo;t go outside to inspect the tree until the weather clears, especially if the tree is on a hill or isolated in a field. Lightning often strikes the same easily-accessed places multiple times, and you could be a new target. If a lightning strike causes a noticeable fire, alert emergency services. When the storm is over, take a closer look to gauge the damage done.</p></div>

Q: How do I shape a cherry tree by trimming it?

• <div><p>You can shape a cherry tree by trimming vertical branches, dense branches, and intersecting branches. Your personal aesthetic comes into play, as well. If you want to simply thin and shape the tree, you can get away with trimming the aforementioned parts of your cherry tree. If you want to shorten branches, however, consider thinning cuts, which alter the length of the branches while encouraging light penetration, new buds and shoots, and a structurally-sound shape.</p></div>

They are very prompt and do a great job. The only complaint I would have is that their delivery and rental charges are quite high but that is in part due to low competition in this area .

Arborists questions, answered by experts

It enhances property aesthetics, improves tree health, and prevents safety hazards.

A tree can grow back from its stump, but full regrowth is unlikely (especially for more stubborn conifer trees). Instead, trees are more likely to send up a number of shoots from the dead stump, which will try to develop into primary stems over time. In other words, it will start to look increasingly bushy. The goal of killing and drying out a tree stump is to prevent that from happening, as well as make the stump easier to completely remove.

Leaving the tree stump and letting it rot is never a good idea, as this leads to insect infestations and other frustrations. Additionally, decomposing trunks are at risk for diseases that spread out to the remaining plants and trees in the yard, thus ruining your whole outdoor aesthetic. It's usually best to remove the stump at the same time you remove the tree.
