How do I find a reputable and cost-effective tree transplanting professional?

• <div><p>Getting a tree pro with the right experience can be the difference between your transplanted tree surviving or not. When hiring a local tree transplanting and removal service, follow up on references, check their portfolio, ask for a breakdown of the costs, and get proof of liability and workers’ compensation insurance. </p><p>Also, look for companies certified by the <a href="https://www.isa-arbor.com/">International Society of Arboriculture</a> or registered with the <a href="https://www.tcia.org/">Tree Care Industry Association</a> and make sure they have an appropriate state or city license.</p></div>

What tree has the deepest roots?

• <div><p>The shepherd’s tree, native to the Kalahari Desert in Africa, holds the record for the deepest known tree roots at over <b>230 feet deep</b>. Some African communities refer to it as the “Tree of Life” since it provides food, shade, and medicinal properties to the surrounding community.</p></div>

What if a neighbor’s tree is blocking my view?

• <div><p>Unfortunately, most of the time you’re out of luck if a neighbor’s tree blocks your view. You don’t have a right to a view, so if you have a tree that’s near the property line but on your neighbor’s property, you can’t cut it to be able to take in a majestic mountain or a beautiful sunrise. In some communities, however, there are ordinances protecting scenic views. Checking into your local laws can help you determine your rights in this situation.</p></div>
