Trees provide significant benefits to our homes and cities, but when trees fall and injure people or damage property, they are liabilities. Recognizing and reducing tree hazards increases the safety of your property and that of your neighbors. Some hazardous trees are best removed. If possible, plant a new tree in an appropriate place as a replacement.

Elwood’s has been on a “crusade” educating the general public that “ topping ” is not proper tree pruning. This is not uncommon, it happens everywhere. Proper pruning should follow the 1/3 rules...
Tree Fertilization
Answer: For a majority of plant material in the Northwest fall is the most optimum timing for fertilization. In fall the soil moisture will be increased and the root systems will begin to grow and develop. However, certain plants may require multiple applications throughout the year, our experts at Elwood’s Tree Service can help you in this area. Method of application for most trees and shrubs would be a liquid fertilizer mix applied by pressurized injection (Deep Root Fertilization). Shallow rooted in bed areas may be drenched. Vertical mulching (drill and fill) can be utilized in certain situations.
Tree Maintenance
Fact: Tree pruning is both an art and a science. After you are done pruning a tree, it should barely look like it has been pruned. If you don’t feel confident to prune small trees or if you need large trees pruned, consult an arborist! While topping is a problem which has plagued the tree care industry for years, it is also an opportunity to educate the public about the concepts of proper pruning and tree care.
