"From the estimate to the last plant planted, the service and quality was excellent. They prepared the soil, laid the edging and cloth, planted the plants and spread the river rock along our privacy fence. They came back and inspected plants that we had concerns about and added additional plantings to boost those planted. We could have not asked for more. The staff is friendly, caring and very professional. Lyndsay listened to our wants and needs and made excellent recommendations. She understands horticulture, aesthetics and customer service. Do yourself a favor and hire Dream Green Toledo. We will for additional annual services."

"The crew was friendly and helpful. They worked with me to make sure the system of French drains I had put in worked for me and the regrading work was amazing. At first i had thought i might be able to do it my self, but the amount of clay in the soil made that impossible, but A+ Equipment Services made easy work of it and got it done quickly."

"Had a great experience with this company. Was not sure what I wanted but with their great expertise I got what I wanted and couldn’t be happier! Pavers and mulching in front yard and a paver approach to my back door. They were fairly priced, always on time and my yard was perfectly cleaned when they finished."

"Luke contacted me quickly and the job was completed quickly. They did a great job removing two dead pine trees at a very reasonable cost. Great clean up afterward too and Luke arranged a stump grinder for us. Highly recommend Luke and his company and we will use again for additional tree services."

Arborists questions, answered by experts

If you’re planning on keeping the tree, unless the roots are invasive, there’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.

Cutting down a tree next to power lines is never a DIY job, and it’s a good idea to contact your utility company first. In most cases, the utility company will need to take care of any tree problems within 10 to 15 feet of power lines. If you want to remove the tree for aesthetic reasons, hire a pro to do the job. Trying to cut trees near power lines yourself can create many safety hazards, and you could be liable if you inadvertently cause damage to electrical equipment.

Most plum trees are pruned into a vase or open wine glass shape. They’ll have a shorter central leader (the trunk) that supports three to four main branches. Of course, this isn't always the case. If you have a European plum tree, you can grow it in a pyramid shape. Let the central leader extend the length of the tree and prune smaller branches to create the pyramid.

Completely topping a plum tree is a risky business. Cut too much, and you’ll kill your tree. That said, you do need to trim the top of your tree to encourage bushy growth, maintain your tree’s vase shape, and limit size. 

A plum tree's central leader (or trunk) should never extend more than 3 feet above the highest branch. When you first plant your tree, cut the central leader so it’s 2 to 3 feet tall. As it grows, cut it back 12 to 20 inches until it reaches its desired height. Never prune more than one-third of the new growth.

The best plan of action for an unhealthy or unsafe tree will depend on its condition. An arborist can recommend whether trimming or removal is the right call for your tree. Preventive tree trimming can keep trees safe and healthy, so make regular tree trimming a part of your yard maintenance plan.
