Q: What are the signs my tree is dying?

• <div><p>Early signs that a tree is struggling include premature leaf shedding and lesions or other strange markings. Peeling bark, dead or rotten branches on the ground, and a conspicuous lack of leaves can all be signs that a tree has started to die. By the time a tree starts leaning, it&rsquo;s usually too far gone to save.</p></div>

Q: How do you transplant palm trees?

• <div><p><a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/how-to-move-palm-tree.htm">Transplanting a palm tree</a> is a similar process except for a couple of important differences. First, their root ball doesn&rsquo;t need to be as large as a &ldquo;true&rdquo; tree, which makes them a bit easier to dig up and move around. Second, they struggle more with taking root and staying upright in a new location, so it&rsquo;s important to give them extra support when staking. </p></div>

Q: What is the best time of year to cut down a tree?

• <div><p>The best time to cut down a tree is during its dormant season, typically in winter or early spring, after all the leaves have fallen. Removing a tree during this period is advantageous for several reasons. Frozen ground helps secure the tree stump, protects the surrounding landscape from damage, and reduces the risk of the tree falling in an unintended direction. With the leaves gone, there is less risk of the tree's foliage getting tangled with other trees. Additionally, since this is often a slower season for tree services, you may be able to hire a professional at a lower rate. This dormant period is also the best time for tree trimming.</p></div>

Q: How can I ask my neighbor to cut their tree?

• <div><p>Ideally, you&rsquo;ll have a good enough relationship with your neighbors that you can kindly mention this task in regular conversation. However, every neighbor (and neighborhood) is different. Your best bet will always be to ask directly and nicely, offering to contribute to the tree trimming efforts if you&rsquo;d like. However, if you are bothered by the tree and your neighbor is unwilling to cut it, you can involve the help of the homeowners&rsquo; association or local authorities, if applicable.</p></div>

Q: Is it okay to leave tree roots in the ground?

• <div><p>If you&rsquo;re planning on keeping the tree, unless the roots are invasive, there&rsquo;s no need to remove them, as doing so can cause damage to the tree. If the tree has been cut down and the stump and roots are left, grinding and removing the stump can cause root decay for some species. For other species, the stump and roots will need to be removed to prevent pests, disease, and possible tree regrowth.</p></div>
