Q: What trees should you not trim in the summer?

• <div><p>You should not trim an oak tree in the summer. Oak trees are especially susceptible to disease, and open tree wounds are an invitation for beetles that carry tree-killing fungus. If there&rsquo;s no risk that the oak tree will do damage to your property or hurt someone, it&rsquo;s best to save the trimming for fall or winter. If you can, seal the wound with latex to prevent fungus from getting inside. </p></div>

Q: How do you transplant palm trees?

• <div><p><a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/how-to-move-palm-tree.htm">Transplanting a palm tree</a> is a similar process except for a couple of important differences. First, their root ball doesn&rsquo;t need to be as large as a &ldquo;true&rdquo; tree, which makes them a bit easier to dig up and move around. Second, they struggle more with taking root and staying upright in a new location, so it&rsquo;s important to give them extra support when staking. </p></div>

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

• <div><p>Unfortunately, most of the time you&rsquo;re out of luck if a neighbor&rsquo;s tree blocks your view. You don&rsquo;t have a right to a view, so if you have a tree that&rsquo;s near the property line but on your neighbor&rsquo;s property, you can&rsquo;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>

Q: Will a tree straighten by itself?

• <div><p>Trees naturally want to grow upward, so one may straighten all by itself, though this only comes into play when a tree is leaning just a small amount. For trees growing into an awkward position or those leaning heavily in one direction, the above steps are necessary to ensure the tree gets back on the right path. This also holds true for trees planted in a spot with unstable soil.</p></div>

Q: Do tree roots grow after a tree is cut down?

• <div><p>Whether tree roots will continue to grow after a tree has been cut down depends on the species. Some tree roots will eventually die because they can no longer get nutrients through photosynthesis. However, other species that reproduce through root sprouts can continue to grow and produce new sprouts for seven years or more. For example, the roots of elms, ficus, and willows tend to regrow aggressively, while the roots of pines, oaks, and maples will typically die. To determine if a root system is still active, look for new sprouts on the old trunk, stump, or any exposed roots.</p></div>

The house we bought has an in-ground pool. My wife wanted landscaping done around the pool and have it look good. It was a lot of work. I was very weary at first, because there were some pretty big trees that were taken down. He told me that they would be there on Wednesday morning first...
