What we do

Specialists in healthy, long-lived trees

New Tree Planting

Selecting the right species for your soil, light, and climate — then planting it the right way so it actually thrives.

Tree Transplanting

Moving an established tree from one spot to another — standard transplants from 5–6 inch caliper, specimens up to 12 inches or larger depending on variety.

Tree Sales

Already know what you want? We can source the tree for you — quality stock, sized for the spot, ready to plant.

Layout & Planning

Walk the property with us. We'll recommend species, plan the layout, and put it in writing — perfect for new builds and full refreshes.

Deep Root Feeding

Pressurized injection of nutrients and water directly to the root zone. Strengthens trees against Panhandle drought, wind, and clay soils.

Tree Pruning (limited)

Selective pruning to shape young trees, address storm damage, or improve structure. Larger crown work — we'll point you to a trusted partner.

FAQ

The questions we get every week

What does a typical job cost?

Honest answer: it depends. A basic transplant starts at $750 per tree. From there, price moves with tree size, species, distance moved, soil conditions, and access. We're competitively priced across the Panhandle, and we apply bundle discounts when you do multiple trees at once. Every quote starts with a free site visit so you know exactly what you're paying before you commit.

When is the best time to plant a tree?

Generally fall and early spring, when temperatures are mild and the tree can establish roots before summer heat. That said, container-grown trees can be planted nearly any time of year if watered properly. We can plant on a schedule that works for you and explain the tradeoffs.

Do you remove old or dead trees?

Yes — we can remove old or dead trees as part of a planting or transplanting job. We do not grind stumps. If you need stumps ground out, we'll refer you to a trusted partner, and we can come back to plant the replacement once that's done.

Do you sell the trees themselves?

Yes. If you already know what you want, we can source it for you — quality nursery stock sized for the spot, ready to plant. If you're not sure, our layout & planning service walks you through species and placement before you commit.

What is deep root feeding and do my trees need it?

Deep root feeding pressurizes nutrients and water directly into the root zone — past the surface, where most fertilizer never reaches. It's especially valuable in the Texas Panhandle, where wind, drought, and clay soils stress trees. Recommended once or twice a year for established trees and any newly transplanted specimen.

How big a tree can you transplant?

Standard transplants start at 5–6 inch caliper (trunk diameter measured 6 inches above the ground). We can move specimens up to 12 inches caliper or larger, depending on the variety — some species relocate well at that size, others don't. We'll walk through what's realistic on the site visit.

What's your service area?

We serve Amarillo, Lubbock, and the wider Texas Panhandle — including Canyon, Pampa, Borger, Dumas, Hereford, Plainview, and surrounding communities. Outside that range we can still help on larger projects with travel costs folded into the quote.

Do I need a permit to plant a tree?

For most residential plantings on private property, no. Some HOAs or municipalities have rules about species, setbacks, or permit requirements — we'll help you check during the site visit.

Before any digging, we coordinate utility locates through the Texas 811 system so we don't hit anything underground. On-site access (gate widths, slope, overhead wires, fence removal, lawn protection) is determined on a site-by-site basis during that same visit so there are no surprises on install day.

How do I pay?

Cash, check, or credit/debit card. For projects over $1,000, we collect a 30–50% deposit at booking and the balance on completion.

Do you work with landscapers and property managers?

Yes — a meaningful share of our work is subcontract installs for landscape designers, design-build firms, HOAs, and property management companies. Insurance certificate available, net-30 terms by arrangement.
