Default Remove/replace palm tree

Has anyone used Richards Tree and Landscape Service out of Ocala to remove and replace a palm tree? If so were you pleased or not pleased with the project and results? Thanks for any info.

Perhaps, a very important question is what to replace it with? Why it died? You just don't like that variety etc. If, a disease took out your tree, it will still be in the soil.

Yep! Got that! The Arborist told me the same thing! That’s why our replacement requirements are so much more than a new palm! Might you be in the business?

In the business-no. Mistakes? It is far cheaper to learn from mistakes others have made then to need to make them all yourself.

People. Some people see a sign that says WET PAINT and they do not sit on the bench.

The Arborist-sounds like you found the right person. There are plants that require a lot of care. There are others that take care of themselves. Not only do some varieties require more care, they are more expensive to buy because the take more care.
