We called to have two large pine trees removed since they were in the way of where we needed to put our fence. We are slackers and always wait until the last minute to do anything so of course, we tried to find someone that could take these out quickly as we needed it done ASAP. These guys came out the same day I called and were able to get them out the next day. I was so impressed by how nice and professional they are, it’s nearly impossible to get anyone to come out and/or follow up with anything so it was extremely refreshing that they did both without me having to call and ask what the hold up was. I will forever use this company for future needs. Thank you again!!

Michael came out to evaluate some trees I had with a questionable fungus on them, and ultimately the course of action was removal for a select few. He got me an estimate for the removal within a matter of days. They had the most competitive prices out of the other estimates I got. Michael is a very knowledgeable Arborist and you can tell he is passionate about his work. He wasn't pushy at all about the removal like some of the other companies I had come out, and he advised me on doing it in "phases" to fit my budget. The actual tree removal and stump grinding itself was so smooth and all the workers that came with the crane and stump service were very professional and communicative about what the process was going to be.

5 Resilient Tree Species that Benefit People and the Planet

Trees around the world have been celebrated for thousands of years. These magnificent entities offer many benefits to the planet, drawing people to connect with them. As a property owner, growing the right trees can enhance the overall quality of your landscape and surrounding ecosystems. Consult the certified arborists at Driscoll Tree Service to learn the different resilient species that can thrive in your area, transforming your property into a green oasis. Here are amazing trees from around the world that benefit the people and the environment.

Poplar

secondary

Poplar is a fast-growing tree species that’s popular for its regenerative ability through root suckering. This trait comes in handy in areas that experience frequent disturbances, such as floodplains and riverbanks. In addition, polar trees have extensive root systems that provide a sturdy foundation for saplings. Tree service professionals recommend these trees to stabilize soil, improve water quality, and reduce erosion. You can also plant a poplar tree after undertaking a tree removal project because of its fast growth and ability to thrive in disturbed areas.

Aspen

Aspen trees are popular for forming extensive clonal colonies through root suckering. These trees thrive in different environments with minimal care, so you don’t have to worry about frequent maintenance or tree removal emergencies. Also, their leaves play a crucial role in nutrient cycling, as they fall and decompose quickly, adding organic matter to the soil. Nutrient cycling benefits trees and the surrounding greenery.

Willow

Willows comprise different shrubs and trees with exceptional regenerative abilities. These species can grow from stumps, cuttings, and roots, and thrive in moist environments. If you live in an area that experiences heavy rains or flooding, consult a professional tree service provider to determine if willows are ideal for your landscape. Professionals can assess your landscape and strategically plant willows to stabilize the soil. This gives you peace of mind knowing you don’t have to worry about soil erosion and other subsequent issues.

Maple

Maple trees are popular for producing root suckers and regenerating even after removal. These deciduous trees are common in North America and are valued for their aesthetics and ecological benefits. Some maple trees have dense canopies that provide food and habitat for different insects, birds, and mammals. Since different maple trees thrive in varying conditions, consult a trusted tree care company to ensure you make the right choice. The last thing you want is growing silver maples in areas suitable for red maples, causing stunted growth and premature tree removal.

Elm

Like the other trees on this list, elm trees also possess regenerative capabilities from suckers. This is a beneficial trait if you want to maintain a green landscape in the face of environmental stress. In addition, these trees are vital in purifying air and stabilizing the soil, making them suitable for urban areas. While elm trees are sturdy and support a healthy biodiversity, routine care by a trusted tree care company is crucial.

Make the planet greener and better by growing resilient tree species in your home.
