How much can I prune without damaging my tree by Alex's Vegetation?

In most cases, canopies can be pruned up to 15% without any excessive damage being caused to the tree. Of course, all dead branches can be pruned.

What is the difference between tree lopping and tree pruning by Alex's Vegetation?

Pruning is performed strategically to enhance the health and strength of a tree. Lopping, on the other hand, is performed to weaken a tree and hinder its growth. Most qualified arborists will avoid lopping whenever possible and instead adopt safer, more eco-friendly tree removal methods.

How often should hedges be trimmed to optimally maintain their health by Alex's Vegetation?

This will vary, depending on the species of the plant. However, in most cases, it’s advisable to trim hedges around 2 to 3 times per year.

What kind of mulch is best for native plants by Alex's Vegetation?

Eucalyptus mulch is ideal for most native plants. This is because it is conducive to the development of microorganisms in the soil which can improve the health of plants – as well as enhance the appearance of garden beds.

What are "Hardscape" and "Softscape" designs by Alex's Vegetation?

As the name suggests, hardscape features are those designed to be long-lasting and fixed to the same location. These can include walkways, patios, and stone structures. "Softscape" designs refer to more transient elements, like plants, trees, and hedges. Your hardscape and softscape designs should complement each other.

From the very beginning, Alex's team demonstrated exceptional service. They promptly provided a quote, swiftly attended to the job, arrived on site even before the agreed-upon time, efficiently completed the tree removal with a strong focus on safety, thoroughly cleaned up the site, and conducted themselves in a highly professional manner. I wholeheartedly endorse their services.

Alex and “Big Dog” turned up on time and got stuck into the job. They were quick, efficient and best of all, took the time to clean up properly and removed the leaf litter/twigs left behind. Friendly, cheerful and great value local service. I would highly recommend Alex and his team and will definitely use him again if needed.

rang Alex,s Vegetation to seek advice on killing a large tree stump previously removed but STILL hanging on and the roots were invading the sewerage and draining systems. He answered the phone personally and gave freely good advice how to "knock off" the offender.Good to see we still have people with local and friendly advice.

I recently got in contact with Alex for a prune of a large tree at my elderly mother's residence. Alex answered the phone when rung and was punctual to attend to give a quote. He was very friendly & knowledgeable in relation to the variety of tree. He suggested the best course of action and we were happy with the quote. Alex's services was engaged and my mother and I were very happy with the result. Thank you and we will certainly ring you again when we need tree services next time
