Are your fruit trees overgrown or under producing?
Fruit trees can get too big for their environment or purpose, blocking light, encroaching on other trees, buildings and paths. Signs of tree stress includes producing lots of small fruit, or dropping fruit before ripening, or flowering but not producing fruit?
Our qualified consulting arborist specialises in tree care plans to manage your larger trees and retain aesthetic and production capabilities.
Are you wanting to maintain the established fruit trees on your new property?
We can inspect your tree assets, perform pruning, and check soil health.
Get in touch with us to develop a tree care plan to suit your wallet and needs.
Are you able to work under the current restrictions and how COVID-safe are you?
Yes, we are authorised to work as a sole, outdoor operator. Both Christy who does the tree care and Bec who does the deliveries are both fully vaccinated.
Want to learn how to prune your own trees?
We believe anyone can learn to prune their own trees just like everyone has the capacity to learn to sing.
We provide information and pruning workshops to help you you learn to care for your trees. Contact us to find out more.
Call us on 0425 7227 63 for tailored care for your fruit tree.

Here is two examples of compartmentalization in trees, with radial and circular walling, in a Citrus lemon sp and in an Acer platanoides.
