🍄 Spotted mushrooms or fungi growing around your tree?

Autumn is one of the times of year we start seeing more fungal growth around the base and trunks of trees — but does it mean there’s something wrong? 🌳

Not necessarily. Some fungi are harmless or even beneficial, while others can be associated with decay within the roots or trunk.

Our latest blog explains what fungi around your tree could mean, what else to look out for and when it’s worth getting your tree checked.

🍎 When Should You Prune Fruit Trees?
Apple, pear, plum or cherry tree in your garden? 🍎🌳
They don't all want pruning at the same time.

As we head towards winter, we're approaching the main pruning period for many established apple and pear trees.

But plums and cherries are different — they're generally better pruned during the growing season, when there's less risk from diseases such as silver leaf.

Our latest blog explains when to prune different fruit trees, why timing matters and some of the common mistakes to avoid.

It’s amazing what a good hedge tidy can do! 🌿✂️

A before and after from one of our recent jobs — bringing this hedge back under control, neatening the shape and giving it a much smarter finish.

Regular hedge maintenance doesn’t just keep things looking tidy, it also helps prevent hedges becoming too large and difficult to manage.
Quite the difference! 👌

🌳 When Is the Best Time to Prune a Tree?
Is winter the best time to prune your trees? 🌳✂️

For many deciduous trees, the answer is yes. Once the leaves have fallen, the structure of the tree is easier to see and many species have entered their dormant period.

But there's an important catch… not every tree should be pruned at the same time of year.

Our latest blog explains why timing matters, the different types of pruning and why knowing the species is so important before work begins.

It’s been a busy summer! 🌳☀️

We’ve been out across Gloucestershire tackling everything from tree reductions and hedge work to full removals — including this Leylandii removal.

Leylandii can grow incredibly quickly and, when they’ve outgrown their space, can become a pretty substantial job to remove.

Here’s this one coming down from start to finish — a big difference in a very short video! 🌲🪚

🍂 Tree Work in Autumn

Autumn is here 🍂 and as the leaves begin to fall, it’s a great time to take a closer look at your trees.

Thinning canopies can make it easier to spot dead or damaged branches, signs of decay and other potential problems that may have been hidden by summer growth.

Our latest blog looks at what to check this autumn and why it’s worth getting concerns looked at before winter weather arrives.

🌳 Does your tree look healthy?

Most of us only notice our trees when something looks obviously wrong – but there are often subtle signs that can tell you a lot about a tree's health long before it becomes a bigger problem.

🍃 Healthy leaves
🌳 A full, balanced canopy
🪵 Healthy bark
🌱 Stable roots
✂️ Minimal deadwood
⚠️ Knowing when it's time to call a professional
