Palm Tree Transplanting Services
Palm trees are one of the most beautiful types of trees in the world. Commonly associated with warm temperatures and luxurious habitats, palm trees are fantastic. You have probably seen them in movies and on postcards and anywhere that an air of exotic, relaxation or retreat is required.
What often occurs with palm trees is that they produce what is referred to as ‘pups.’ These ‘pups’ are offshoots of the original, larger plant. These are great plants to transplant elsewhere on your property and here at JK Cooper, we’re happy to be able to offer this service to you.
We take care with each of our tree transplanting jobs and it’s no exception with the service we offer to palm tree owners. Here at JK Cooper, our specialists will first evaluate the tree itself to see if it is large enough to be deemed ready for transplanting.
If it is not, we will advise you regarding the palm tree pup and do our best to set a timeline as to when this tree will be ready to be transplanted. We do this because we value the health of your tree and want to ensure that the best precautions are being taken that will lead toward it growing healthily and serving you well for years to come.
If we discover that an offshoot of your palm tree is ready to be transplanted, we will select the strongest offshoot and remove that one from its location. Then, we will transplant it where you have directed us, first ensuring that this is a suitable location for us to do so.
Once the transplanting job is done, our team is happy to check in periodically with you and your tree to ensure that everything is going well. Our team of analyzers and assessment specialists will be glad to advise you on how your tree is growing and how you can ensure that all goes well with it.
Here are a few tips for caring for your palm tree that will be of assistance before, during and after you hire us to assist you with your project:
Give your palm two to four weeks to acclimate to your garden before you apply any fertilizer. Once it’s established, use a complete fertilizer that contains two parts nitrogen, one part phosphorus, and three parts potassium along with one part magnesium. Fertilize four times a year.
If you have a large palm tree and can’t reach old leaves with a pole saw, decide how important it is to prune your palm tree. Eventually the palm will shed its old fronds, but if you don’t want to wait, you have a couple of options: hire a cherry picker or a tree climber.
