Tree Care in Vincent, CA

If you're looking at the trees in your Vincent yard and wondering what's wrong, you're not alone. Most problems I see here trace back to the original landscaping choices made when these homes were built. Builders in the 1950s and 60s often planted fast-growing, non-native trees for quick shade and curb appeal. Species like Ficus and Blue Gum Eucalyptus were popular then, but they're now mature liabilities with aggressive roots or brittle wood. The real issue is that you can't see inside a tree from the outside. A tree can look fine for years while decay spreads internally, and by the time you see dead branches or cracks, the structural problem is often advanced.
