Frequently Asked Questions
Why do palm trees drop fronds so often?
Palms naturally shed their fronds as part of their growth cycle. Older fronds dry out and eventually fall, sometimes without warning. In urban settings, this can create hazards for people, cars, or nearby structures. Regular cleaning reduces these risks and keeps the tree looking healthy.
Are Cocos palms more difficult to manage than other palms?
Yes, Cocos palms are considered one of the trickier species. They produce heavy seed pods that attract bats and birds, creating mess and noise. Their fronds are also large and tough, making removal more challenging. Because of these factors, many homeowners choose professional removal or regular cleaning to avoid ongoing problems.
Can palm tree roots damage nearby structures or pipes?
While palm roots are generally less invasive than those of other trees, some species can still spread widely in search of water. This may cause interference with underground pipes, paving, or garden beds. Regular monitoring ensures roots don’t become a problem. If a palm is too close to structures, removal may be the safest option.
Keeping Your Palms Healthy & Tidy
Trimming palms requires more than just cutting away dead leaves - it involves knowing how to manage growth without harming the tree. We offer regular palm cleaning that removes old fronds, seeds, and debris, helping to reduce pests and improve safety around homes and gardens.
For palms that have outgrown their space or pose risks, we provide complete removal with careful planning and minimal disruption. Our goal is to keep your property tidy, safe, and looking its best year-round.
