FAQ

Questions About Tree Work & Landscaping

These are the questions we're asked most often on Palm Beach County properties. Looking for a specific area or service? Each service page answers its own questions too.

Tree Care & Tree Services

Which tree service do I need?

It depends on the problem. Growth on a roof or over a driveway is tree trimming. A tree that looks unwell or unstable needs a tree care assessment. A tree that has outgrown its space may need canopy reduction. A tree that can't be kept safely calls for removal, and a healthy tree in the wrong spot may be a candidate for relocation. If you're not sure, we'll look at it and tell you.

What tree services do you offer in Palm Beach County?

Tree trimming, structural pruning, tree removal, tree relocation, canopy reduction, hedge and shrub management, palm tree care, and ongoing tree care — for homeowners and commercial properties throughout Palm Beach County.

Landscaping & Plant Selection

Which trees grow best in Palm Beach County?

Many native and tropical species thrive here, including Live Oak, Gumbo Limbo, Mahogany, Royal Poinciana, Sabal Palm, Coconut Palm and several ornamental flowering trees. The right species depends on your property's conditions and your long-term landscape goals.

What are the best privacy trees and hedges for South Florida?

Common privacy choices include Clusia, Podocarpus, Areca Palm, Simpson Stopper, Green Island Ficus and Viburnum. The best option depends on sunlight, available space, the height you want, soil conditions and how much maintenance you want to take on.

Do you help homeowners choose the right trees and plants?

Yes — it's one of our specialties. We consider your landscape goals, budget, maintenance preferences, soil, sunlight and available space so the planting thrives for years. Scott takes clients to the nursery to hand-select the trees and plants together, so the finished landscape matches what you pictured. It's part of our landscape design process.

Do you provide complete landscape renovations?

Yes. We design and install landscapes ranging from simple enhancements to complete property transformations, including trees, plantings, hedges and the overall look of the property.

What makes Arbor's landscaping approach different?

Our owner works directly with every client on a landscape that fits the property, lifestyle and budget. We visit local nurseries to hand-select trees and plants based on sun exposure, soil, drainage and long-term growth — thoughtful, customized recommendations without high design fees.
