Tree Care in Felton, CA

If you're looking at the trees around your Felton home, you're likely seeing the consequences of landscaping choices made when these houses were built. In the 1960s and 80s, builders often planted fast-growing species like Monterey Pine and Blue Gum Eucalyptus for quick shade and curb appeal. The problem is that many of these trees are now 60-plus years old and reaching the end of their natural lifespan in a residential setting. You can't see inside a tree from the outside. What looks like a healthy canopy might be hiding significant internal decay that started years ago, a particular risk with our wet winters and the structural weaknesses of those older, non-native plantings.
