  Any tree / plant sites you'd recommend? So were having some landscaping changes done and the wife and I have been researching various shrubs and trees. That led me to wondering if the sub had any recommendations when it comes to plant sites. We discovered this site by accident but it's a good example of the types of sites we're looking for. If anyone has used them and they think it's good or bad let me know as well: https://www.thetreecenter.com/ Tomorrow we'll hit up a couple of local nurseries but if you have any suggestions or favorite sites let me know. As always it's appreciated.

  You want a plant that was grown in a climate similar to yours. A tree that spent its first 5 years in Georgia may not do well in Michigan and vice versa. I would not buy online; I need to see the tree/shrub. How healthy does it look; are there problems with the bark; are roots encircling the container; is it in the right size container for the overall size of the plant. Good general buying and great tree care info at [TreesAreGood.org](https://TreesAreGood.org). If cost is your biggest concern, look into Arbor Day. Plant ASAP or wait until fall; do not plant in summer -- too stressful.

  Looking for tree trimming service I have a bit of tree trimming that I need to get done, and I'm looking for any recommendations. It's a relatively small job (I think), the trees are just a bit tall so I don't really feel comfortable doing it myself. Any recommendations are appreciated!

  Make sure to use an International Society of Arboriculture Certified Arborist. You can find a list by going to the find an arborist link on treesaregood.org.

  Lisa L. asked:

  Looking for insured tree climber or company to take down 2 tall trees in Perry County. Any recommendations? Thanks

  

  Julie W. replied:

  I would recommend you start with the "Find an Arborist" tool at www.treesaregood.org - all of the companies listed will be ISA (International Society of Arboriculture) Certified Arborists. In addition, please, please, please VERIFY their proof of both liability AND workers' comp insurance - a reputable company should give you proof of this when they give you a proposal. I would even then follow up with that proof by calling the insurance carrier(s) to verify. You can read more about why this is so important here: http://climbhightree.com/considerations-when-hiring-a-tree-care-company/

  Brenda B. asked:

  Looking for any referrals for tree service in the Vero Beach area.

  

  Holly C. replied:

  Hey Brenda! Depends on what you're looking to have done… If it's architectural pruning or specific crown cleaning type work, I'd go with someone who is definitely ISA certified. Jimmy's or Scott's, for instance. I've also heard some good things about Jack's Complete Tree Service, but haven't used them myself. Remember Joe Sentence? He's ISA certified, too. Otherwise, go to: www.treesaregood.org and click "find an arborist" at the top. 😊🌴🌳

  Harold B. asked:

  Does anyone know of an educated arborist? Not a guy/gal gardener running around rampant with a pair of trimmers? Need one for the beloved family apple tree that might be afflicted with "sappy bark" (trametes versicolor). Muchos!

  Matt T. asked:

  Do you have any recommendations for a tree service that specializes in Ashe trees(emerald Ashe)

  

  Jo S. replied:

  Bartlett is good, also Vine and Branch, vineandbranch.net. You can go to treesaregood.org, plug in your ZIP code and find an arborist near you and what services the company offers. There's also Purdue's website, which has a lot of good info for the homeowner. http://extension.entm.purdue.edu/EAB/index.php?page=management/homeowners

  Hello, I am not sure if this is appropriate or not but can anyone refer an arborist/horticulturist located near West Palm Beach, FL? We are looking for someone to take on a leadership role for our private gardens. Thank you!

  Tara S. asked:

  Ok, Island peeps, please PM me with your recommendations for a tree trimming service. I'm shopping estimates. Thanks!

  

  Ron C. replied:

  Okay Cuz, as a Certified Arborist for the past 25 years, you should definitely solicit bids from at least 3 companies that have Arborists. Make sure the bid spells out exactly what they will do for how much. Don't let them sell you something you don't need. Less is usually better. Here's a link that will help you find someone in your area that will advise you what is best for your tree: http://www.treesaregood.org/findanarborist/findanarborist.aspx. Of course if you want, I'd be happy to come and take care of it for you.
