"Mike was recommended to us by a neighbor and we are VERY PLEASED with the expertise and workmanship he provided! We hired him to remove branches of a very large old tree that was splitting and the end result turned out BEAUTIFULLY. Mike answered all of our many questions prior to the project and was very transparent and HONEST about each detail. Additionally he was not only responsive, but also RESPECTFUL, EFFICIENT and took extra care to avoid driving over our septic system. His assistant also went the extra mile to clean up our yard immaculately and I even saw him fixing part of our caution tape marking our septic area that had ripped during their work; truly impressive care and attention to detail. Overall, Mike is ETHICAL, PROFESSIONAL and down to earth - I would absolutely recommend his work to anyone looking to hire a GREAT LOCAL BUSINESSMAN. Thank you Mike!"

Arborists questions, answered by experts

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.

Though summer is not ideal, you can do some light pruning during this time of year. Just make sure it’s not excessive. Vigorous pruning will stress the tree and impact next year’s growth. Generally, August to September are the best summer-pruning months, particularly for fruit trees.

Rock salt or Epsom salt can damage and kill tree roots over several weeks and can even assist in removing the tree's stump. However, you need to drill holes or cut into the stump and surface tree roots to inject them properly with the salt. Repeat the process every two weeks until the roots visibly rot away.

If you want to take your tree-planting hobby beyond your outdoor space, here are a few great ways to do it:

  • Encourage your neighbors to participate in the Arbor Day Foundation’s Tree City USA program, which has a four-step framework that helps communities grow and maintain their own tree cover.

  • Support businesses that plant trees. 

  • Lobby your local government to plant more trees around your community.

  • Donate to a tree-planting charity.

Once you confirm a tree is dead, you should remove it. Dead trees eventually fall, and larger trees in particular can cause damage to rooftops, fencing, flowers, and other objects. As we mentioned, letting decayed wood stay in your yard also invites risks to the surrounding landscaping and vegetation.
