Q: Can I plant a palm tree close to my house?

• <div><p>Planting a palm tree close to your home can provide shade while elevating the beauty of your yard. However, there are a few safety concerns to consider before doing so. You&rsquo;ll want to opt for a smaller tree with a non-invasive root system. Select a species that won&rsquo;t grow too tall and choose a planting location that won&rsquo;t damage your home.</p></div>

Q: How long does it take for palm tree stumps to rot?

• <div><p>Palm tree stumps can take as long as seven to ten years to rot naturally. Whereas some tree stumps rot within a year, palm trees tend to last longer due to their deep root networks. Chemical rotting (described above) can help speed the process up so your palm tree stumps rot in under two months.</p></div>

Q: Can a broken tree branch grow roots?

• <div><p>Large, established tree branches won&rsquo;t grow roots, but if you find a young tree branch that&rsquo;s less than about a year old, you&rsquo;ve got a shot. Put it in water or soil as soon as possible for best results. You&rsquo;ll know the branch is viable if it&rsquo;s about the thickness of a pencil and has some leaves or needles.</p></div>

Q: How do you protect tree roots during excavation?

• <div><p>The best way to protect tree roots is to avoid the roots entirely by excavating outside the root radius of the tree. For nearby projects, it&rsquo;s a good idea to construct a temporary retaining wall. But that&rsquo;s not always possible, depending on the project and the root system. In these cases, consider using alternative equipment like an auger to tunnel under the ground.</p><p>Remember, tree roots can damage nearby cement foundations as they grow. If a tree is close enough to interfere with large excavations, it may be better to <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/how-to-remove-tree.htm">remove the tree</a> than risk future problems.</p></div>

Q: How close can trees get to power lines before they’re dangerous?

• <div><p>While trees can grow in the curb strip between the sidewalk and the street, this placement often poses the problem of <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/know-dangers-trees-and-power-lines.htm">interfering with overhead power lines</a>. It&rsquo;s best to consult your local utility provider and tree planting service before transplanting a tree that might grow into power lines. Also, you should never work within 20 feet of a live power line to avoid the risk of electric shock. Tree branches should never touch nearby power lines, so it&rsquo;s essential to ensure your tree isn&rsquo;t in danger of growing too close to them.</p></div>

"Rooks did some really good and beautiful work for me (though the work was mostly actually done by a different lawn service) however the job that I paid for was never completely finished. 1st, no liner was placed under the pine straw as I requested and had ready to use, so within a week I had weeds growing back in my gardens. The edging never got placed. I actually paid someone else a great deal less than what was originally paid to Rooks to lay the edging. I also requested to setup maintenance and follow-up. Once they were gone, I have yet to hear from them.
I do hate it, because Chris and Gregg were very nice and good guys. Maybe just overwhelmed with work and quality failed a little.
