Get matched with top tree service pros in Hinton, WV

Q: Can I cut off the top of a cherry tree?

• <div><p>You should avoid cutting off the top of mature cherry trees. This process is called tree topping, and it&rsquo;s not recommended for cherry trees&mdash;or any trees, for that matter. Tree topping removes between one-third to half of the length of the tree trunk, resulting in structurally unsound, fruitless suckers. The only exception is for saplings. Young pie, sour, and tart cherry trees that are over 30 inches tall in the fall or winter before the tree blooms can benefit from heading cuts.</p></div>

Q: What tree has the deepest roots?

• <div><p>The shepherd&rsquo;s tree, native to the Kalahari Desert in Africa, holds the record for the deepest known tree roots at over <b>230 feet deep</b>. Some African communities refer to it as the &ldquo;Tree of Life&rdquo; since it provides food, shade, and medicinal properties to the surrounding community.</p></div>

Q: What’s the best way to control a tree’s height?

• <div><p>The best way is to start controlling tree height long before it grows too large, via careful pruning through the years. But that&rsquo;s not always possible. If a tree has become too high or too large, use selective pruning to remove the most troublesome branches, one by one, without topping the tree. Gently shaping a tree like this can, over time, correct problems. You can also find growth inhibitors to spray on a tree to stop it from growing too rapidly, but use these sparingly if at all.</p></div>

Q: Are palm tree stumps hard to remove?

• <div><p>Unfortunately, palm tree stumps are one of the most difficult types to remove due to how their roots grow. Unlike other trees, palm tree roots grow horizontally and vertically. Palm tree roots grow as deep as three feet into the ground, although soil and growing conditions could mean they go as far as 50 inches into the earth. </p><p>If you want to be able to repurpose the grass in the area where you removed a stump later, you&rsquo;ll have to dig quite deep&mdash;and perhaps wide&mdash;to trim away all the roots.</p></div>

Q: Do arborists climb trees?

• <div><p>Not every arborist climbs trees, but most will do so if that&rsquo;s the best method for assessing or treating a tree. Arborists have a variety of tree climbing gear and safety equipment to choose from when climbing trees. Consult your local arborist about their tree-climbing plan if your service requires that type of task. </p></div>
