Palms are pruned and removed differently to broadleaf trees, given their single trunk and dense crown of fronds.
Old dead fronds on a mature palm can be surprisingly heavy and sharp edged, and they tend to let go without much warning once they dry out. On species that build up a thick skirt of dead fronds around the trunk, this build up can also become a fire hazard, particularly during dry summer months common across the Goulburn Valley.
Palms also grow quite differently to broadleaf trees, with all their growth coming from a single point at the top of the trunk. This means damage to the crown, whether from disease, frost or physical injury, can affect the whole tree in a way that pruning cannot always fix.
Frost damage is also worth watching for in cooler Goulburn Valley winters, since some palm species are more cold sensitive than others and can show browning or dieback in the crown after a particularly cold snap.
Arbor Tree & Stump Removal has the equipment and experience to work safely at height on tall palms, and we understand the different risks palms carry compared to other tree species. We assess each palm on its condition and give you an honest recommendation on whether pruning will keep it safe or whether removal is the better option.
