Tree Care in Princeville, HI

Princeville's mature trees are a defining feature of your property, but many are now at a critical age. The community's landscape, planted around 42 years ago when the homes were built, is showing the consequences of those initial choices. Fast-growing species like Albizia (Falcataria) and Ironwood were popular for quick shade and screening, but they have weak wood and aggressive root systems. Now, these large trees are prone to dropping major limbs or failing entirely, especially in our year-round growing season that pushes constant, heavy growth. Your majestic Kukui (Candlenut) or Hala tree, however, is a different story. These native species are adapted to our climate and soils, and with proper care, they are long-term assets that define the character of Kauai.
