Q: How do you prune and shape a plum tree?

• <div><p>Most plum trees are pruned into a vase or open wine glass shape. They&rsquo;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.</p></div>

Q: How big is too big of a tree to transplant?

• <div><p>It&rsquo;s possible to transplant trees as tall as 50 feet when an experienced tree planting service uses the right equipment. However, a tree with a trunk larger than two or three inches in diameter needs to be handled by a professional in order to yield successful transplanting results. Consulting a tree planting professional is the best way to tell if your large tree can be safely transplanted.</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: What factors affect tree removal costs?

• <div><p>Costs depend on tree height, trunk diameter, removal complexity, and required equipment.</p></div>

Q: When should you remove a tree?

• <div><p>There are a few instances in which removing a tree is the best option. You might do this if the tree looks to be a major danger&mdash;potentially falling onto your home, your car, or other parts of your property&mdash;or it&rsquo;s diseased beyond repair. A tree that is growing too close to your house might need to be removed to prevent mold growth. </p></div>
