Palm Tree Care

One of the many types of trees that we care for in the Bay Area are palm trees.  We have been doing quite a bit of palm tree care and pruning and it is important to know a few things about Palm trees and how to best care for them.

It is important that Palm trees be pruned and cleaned.  Palms trees need to be pruned in a specific way in order to maintain their shape.  In some cases, incorrect pruning of a Palm tree could cause severe damage or even death.  This is why it is so important that a professional tree company prune your palm trees.  Pruning palm trees is done mostly to remove dead or dying fronds, and any flower or fruit stalks.

Another important aspect of palm tree pruning is the height!  We have a bucket truck for this exact purpose!  It is highly important that Palm trees trunks are not damaged, which is why using a bucket truck is the right tool for this job.  You wouldn’t hire an electrician to do the plumbing at your house, so why hire an inexperienced tree company to care for your beautiful palm trees.

Here is a great article about the proper care and pruning for your palm trees for Trees Are Good!

Having the right equipment and the right training so important when caring for the beautiful palm trees that grace our bay area landscape.  If you own a palm tree, give us a call and let us come and care for your palm tree today!
