FAQ

Frequently asked
questions

My trees seem fine, do they really need to be pruned?

Yes! Pruning trees is an essential part of caring for your property. Properly maintained trees add THOUSANDS of dollars to your home's value (up to 10%) and drastically improve the quality of your landscape. Failing to properly maintain trees can result in property damage, injuries, and disrupt your yard's aesthetic as an eye sore and recurring nuisance. Cultivate your own piece of paradise through the magic of awesome trees!

Why does my tree look sick?

There are many possible causes for sick trees in Utah. Our state can be a challenging environment for some species with our hot, dry summers and unusually alkaline soil Improper watering, poor planting technique, and nutrient deficiencies are extremely common. There are dozens of tree-damaging insects, both native and invasive, as well as many types of aggressive fungi and bacteria that frequently harm trees. With so many factors to consider, accurate diagnosis and treatment of sick trees in Utah requires considerable knowledge and experience; our team of ISA Certified Arborists are plant health care specialists with the skills and equipment to treat any pest and restore your trees to a healthly state.

My tree is so messy! Can I do anything to prevent it from making so much debris?

Yes! Certain species can be sprayed with a special type of chemical that mimics natural biological processes within the tree and tricks the tree into foregoing 'fruit' production for that year. Examples of this 'fruit' are the small, inedible seeds that drop from Ornamental Pears, Plums, and Crabapples, the messy cotton from Cottonwoods and Aspens, the nuts from Walnuts, Horsechestnuts, and Oaks, and the seedpods from Sycamore. This type of treatment requires specialized equipment capable of spraying high up and the application should only be done by an expert due to the need for precise dosage and treatment timing. If you love your trees but are tired of cleaning up after them, give us a call!

I'm worried my tree is getting 'too big'. Is there anything I can do?

Yes! Generally speaking, big trees are not a safety concern when they are well maintained. Proper pruning to mitigate hazards is usually sufficient. But in instances where a tree is truly outgrowing its space, such as getting too close to a building or blocking a view, there is a chemical solution. We can apply a Plant Growth Regulator (PGR) to reduce a tree's rate of growth by up to 90%. Think of it like pushing the PAUSE button on the tree crown. This treatment also comes with some added benefits; trees use the resources that would have gone to growth on increasing leaf size and stem diameter, which means sturdier, healthier-looking trees that don't get taller and wider every year. Before you decide to remove a tree due to size concerns, give us call to see if you can have your cake and eat it too!
