Tree Care in Interlaken, CA

If you're looking at the trees in your Interlaken yard, you're likely seeing the legacy of a 1960s or 70s landscaping plan. Builders back then often chose fast-growing trees for quick shade and curb appeal, which means many properties here are now home to mature Monterey pines and eucalyptus (Blue Gum). These species are now reaching their structural limits in our coastal climate. The bigger issue is that the daily lawn sprinkler schedule, common in our area, is actually harming these large trees. It encourages shallow roots that can't anchor a 50-foot pine during one of our 2-3 annual storm events, and it doesn't provide the deep, infrequent soaking a tree's root system truly needs.
