Dead frond removal, seed-pod clean-up, and proper hurricane-prep pruning on queens, royals, Sylvesters and coconuts — done the right way, not the hurricane cut.
Palms are different from trees. Cut too much and you stress the heart — that pale tender bud at the top. A stressed palm drops fronds, slows its growth, and sometimes never recovers.
We prune palms on the 9-to-3 rule or gentler — only fronds that are brown, yellowing, or below horizontal come off. We remove seed pods and flower stalks to stop the mess. We don't do the 'hurricane cut' that leaves a palm with only a handful of fronds pointing straight up — that's landscaper convenience, not tree care. Our climbers and spikeless belts mean no permanent scars on your palm trunks.
If any of these sound familiar, it's probably time for a professional to walk the property.
Same approach on every job — whether it's a single tree or a property-wide contract.
Queens, royals, Sylvesters, coconuts — each takes different pruning. We don't treat them all the same.
Climber goes up with spikeless technique on ornamental palms to protect the trunk. We check the crown before cutting.
Only dead, yellowing, or below-horizontal fronds come off. Seed pods and flower stalks removed. Never the heart.
Fronds chipped or hauled — never left on the curb. Driveway and pool deck blown clean.
Everything below comes standard. No hidden add-ons, no surprise charges on the invoice.

Quick answers to the questions homeowners ask us most often about this service.
It's a decorative shaping where we trim the old frond bases into a neat pineapple pattern on the trunk. Very popular on landscaped properties — we do it properly.
Falling coconuts absolutely cause roof damage, pool damage, and injury. We remove them as part of a prune or on dedicated coconut-removal visits.
Yes — South Florida soil is low in potassium and magnesium, which palms need. We can recommend a treatment schedule during the trim.
