Q: Do palm trees have to be trimmed every year?

• <div><p>Only trim palm trees as needed, which is usually about once per year. However, don't stick to that schedule if the palm tree doesn't need it. Avoid trimming palm trees when possible. It&rsquo;s best to trim palm trees only when you notice a buildup of dead fronds. That said, leave the brown fronds during the dormant season because this organic matter helps protect the tree from the cooler weather. </p></div>

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.

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: What do I do with a tree stump once it’s dead?

• <div><p>Some people prefer to leave or even carve a leftover stump, but we recommend removing it if possible. You can often dig out smaller trunks with a shovel once they have died and dried out. You can have stumps professionally removed, or request a service to grind them down to ground level so they can be replaced with other landscaping or objects.</p></div>
