Is now a good time to trim your trees? It depends on the species — and right now, timing really matters.

We just published a full seasonal pruning guide for Lake & Cook County homeowners. Here's what's happening this week:

✅ Do NOW: Prune crabapples, cherries & redbuds right after bloom — your window is open today.
✅ Safe anytime: Remove deadwood from any tree.
⛔ Hold off on oaks & elms: Oak Wilt is at peak risk May through July. No structural cuts until December.

The wrong cut at the wrong time can kill a mature oak within weeks. The right cut today keeps your trees healthier and safer for years.

Our ISA-certified arborists serve Lincolnshire, Vernon Hills, Lake Forest, Libertyville, Buffalo Grove, Highland Park & throughout Lake and Cook Counties.

When it comes to watering trees, more isn’t always better.

Spring irrigation systems often deliver too much water — and in the wrong place.
Over time, this can lead to root stress, fungal issues, and long-term damage.

If your soil never dries out or your tree looks stressed despite regular watering, it’s worth a closer look.

We’ve put together a quick guide to help you get it right this season.
