We May Consider purchasing the following species under certain conditions:
The following species below are only purchased if they meet these specific conditions. If your trees do not meet these requirements, we may charge for removal:
- Royal Palms (Size-Based Criteria): We primarily purchase Royal Palms with under 18 feet of gray wood, as these specimens are in higher demand and receive our best pricing. While we occasionally purchase larger Royals (over 18' GW), they are only accepted under specific market conditions. Please note that because larger trees take longer to place with buyers, we may charge for removal or recommend a traditional tree service if you require them to be gone within a 30-90 day window.
- Paurotis Palms (Everglades): Must be a quantity of 10 or more on a single property. Specimens must be full (not thinned out), healthy, and deep green.
- 1-3 Trunk Pygmy Date Palms: Must be a quantity of 10 or more available on a single property.
- Queen Palms: Must be a quantity of 10 or more on a single property. Trees must be healthy and green (no "frizzle top") with no holes, tapers, or curves.
- Washingtonian Palms (Mexican Fan): Must be a quantity of 10 or more on a single property. Trees must be under 22' of trunk with no curves or trunk damage. (Specimens over 22' will be rejected).
- Bismarck Palms: Must be a quantity of 10 or more on a single property and must have been root-pruned for at least one year.
Trees must be grown in full sun, healthy, easily accessible, and of good quality.
Good quality is defined as no holes, no crown tilts, no dead or rotten wood, no tapers or uneven trunk caliper, no deficiencies, and no damage on the trunk (chainsaw marks, cuts, scars, etc.).
