Tree Support System Questions & Answers
There are many things that can make a tree unstable. For example, a young tree in a high traffic area such as near the entrance of a restaurant or a playground probably needs support braces to help it maintain a healthy posture. Other tree instability causes include wind storm damage, over-pruning one side, leader damage, insect or termite infestations, and disease.
Some species are simply more susceptible to root uplift or wind damage that can make them lean dangerously to the side. Palm trees are very susceptible to storm trauma; almost all young varieties of tropical palms should have tree cables wrapping around the trunk and ground-level tie-downs to help maintain its vertical position until the roots have grown deep enough for it to hold a vertical stance.
We provide palm tree bracing services to help your young palms thrive, supporting them and preventing leaning. To maximize your palm tree’s health we also recommend professional palm frond pruning and trimming service seasonally.
