Tree Care in Flower Hill, MD

If you're looking at the trees in your Flower Hill yard and wondering about their health, you're not alone. Most of the homes here were built around 1983, which means the trees are now about 43 years old. That's a critical age for many of the species builders favored back then. We see a lot of mature silver maples and Bradford pears in this area. The silver maple grows fast, but its weak wood and aggressive surface roots often lead to storm damage and cracked driveways. The Bradford pear is even more predictable; it's beautiful for about 15 to 20 years, but its poor branch structure means it's almost guaranteed to split apart as it reaches maturity, which is right where yours are now.
