Some Of The Most Popular Trees We Service in Oahu, HI

Arguably, the most popular here in Hawaii, the coconut tree has lots of history. Its palms offer shade and gorgeous colors of greens and yellows. The coconut itself is used for hundreds of things, including aiding in our health and well-being! These trees are beyond important, and we take pride in working with them. Coconut trees need to be routinely trimmed to make sure the fronds can grow correctly. We want to keep coconut trees healthy because it's tough to service them when they aren’t, and oftentimes leads to complete removal.

The koa tree is ancient and extremely valuable. The wood from the koa tree is highly sought after and is used for many things, including ukuleles and guitars. The koa tree is protected here in Hawaii, so maintenance is limited to pruning and trimming. The koa tree grows fast and is one of the most significant trees we have here in Oahu and Honolulu.

​The Hala tree is a favorite among natives as it grows near the water. Hala trees have aerial roots and long branches. Hala trees can be trimmed for their fruit, which strictly grows on the female Hala trees.

The eucalyptus tree is native to Australia but was brought here to Hawaii many years ago. It is known to be the tallest hardwood tree in the world and one of the most beautiful. The trunks of these trees are colorful and unique, but the branches can sometimes be flimsy. Trimming of branches may help prevent them from breaking and becoming damaged or causing damage during high winds.

The kukui tree, also known as the candlenut tree, is our official state tree. It produces the kukui nut, which is edible when boiled. The nut from the kukui tree also holds a lot of oil, so it can sometimes be burned. Trimming of branches near the crown of this tree for the first 5-6 years of its life is imperative for proper growth.

The banyan tree is a complex and intricate tree that grows tall and broad. It, too, like the koa, drops down aerial roots, and those roots dig deep down into the earth and form a new “mini” trunk. The banyan tree is tricky to trim and prune, but we are always up for the challenge.
