"I cannot say enough good things about this company! They transformed my yard with beautiful flowers, bushes, and fresh mulch, and the results exceeded my expectations. Every detail was done with care, and my entire yard looks absolutely amazing. The owner, Carey, is one of the kindest, most honest, and hard-worker I have had the pleasure of doing business with. He does exactly what he says he will do, keeps his word, and takes great pride in his work. Those qualities are becoming harder to find, and they made this experience even more enjoyable. If you’re looking for someone who is dependable, trustworthy, and truly cares about doing an outstanding job, I highly recommend this company. I am beyond pleased with the results and would not hesitate to hire them again. Thank you for making my yard so beautiful!"

"I recently hired José for several yard projects, and I couldnâ t be happier with the results. José communicated effectively from start to finish, ensuring I was informed and involved in every step. He installed a new landscaping drain in my backyard, added new gravel, installed a sump pump with a drain box, and added metal edging in my parking strips while increasing the size of my front yard tree ring. Joséâ s exceptional work quality, honesty, and meticulous attention to detail truly set him apart. He prides himself on his craftsmanship, guarantees his work, and prioritizes correcting any issues. His valuable suggestions and consistent consultations made the projects even better. I highly recommend José to family and friends and will definitely hire him for future yard jobs."

Arborists questions, answered by experts

Completely topping a plum tree is a risky business. Cut too much, and you’ll kill your tree. That said, you do need to trim the top of your tree to encourage bushy growth, maintain your tree’s vase shape, and limit size. 

A plum tree's central leader (or trunk) should never extend more than 3 feet above the highest branch. When you first plant your tree, cut the central leader so it’s 2 to 3 feet tall. As it grows, cut it back 12 to 20 inches until it reaches its desired height. Never prune more than one-third of the new growth.

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. 

Also, look for companies certified by the International Society of Arboriculture or registered with the Tree Care Industry Association and make sure they have an appropriate state or city license.

You can remove a small tree from your yard if there’s space for the tree to fall, you have the right tools and safety equipment, and you follow a clear plan of action. You’ll just want to follow the steps above carefully, and ideally, you will have experience doing similar tasks. If you have any doubts that you can do this project safely, though, you should hire a pro.

On average, tree removal costs around $750, with a typical range between $200 and $2,000. The final price depends on several factors, including the tree's height, trunk diameter, species, and overall health. Accessibility is also a key factor; costs will be higher if the tree is in a hard-to-reach area or located near structures like power lines or your home. Additional costs may apply for services such as stump removal (which can add $100 to $150), log-splitting, debris cleanup, and obtaining necessary permits. It is also customary to tip the professional, usually between $20 and $100.

In most ways, palm trees are incredibly low-maintenance. They don’t need a ton of water—which is why they’re so beloved in desert regions—and they basically prune themselves. But they do need an ample supply of sunlight and to be in soil that will allow for proper drainage so that their roots don’t become waterlogged and at risk of developing illnesses.

If the plant begins to wilt, develop spots, or change color, these could all be signs that your palm tree has a disease. But a few basic treatments, like pruning and applying fungicide, will usually be more than enough to return it to perfect health.
