I'm a San Diegan but I'm from the midwest , so I love trees. That's why I sought the services of an arborist when I had to cut back a too large 35 yr old tree that had been the CENTERPIECE (and curb appeal) of my front yard for 35 yrs. I didn't want just a "tree trimming service". i wanted someone who knew and loved trees. I contacted Gary - not knowing, at the time, his extensive background - nor that he had been recognized in "Home and Garden" and other such publications. (If I'd known that, I probably would have thought he'd have no time for my tree and would not have contacted him!)
Gary was able to identify this tree immediately. (Local nurseries could not.) He told me what needed to be done. He assured me this tree would send out new growth within months. The next week my tree was trimmed! And . . . . it had been fertilized. And . . . . ALL the twigs, branches, leaves, etc had been completely cleaned up. And . . . . I had received instructions from Gary as to how to care for it in the months to come.
Two months later, this tree began the process of sending out new growth. (Even sooner than predicted. ) It's now only 6 mos later, so my locust tree isn't yet ready to send "before and after" picutures. But it's well on it's way. If you need someone who knows trees, call Gary.
