Heavy Lifting

Heavy Lifting

May 07

 

Trees are the backbone to our landscape.  They provide food and shelter for wildlife, provide respite in the hot summer, buffer powerful winds, and screen unsightly views.  Mature trees reach a respectable size after many years of growth.  Nurseries specializing in large trees maintain each tree until it is mature and capable of  providing instant impact within the landscape.

 

Craning Redwood

 

Newly opened vistas needed screening to enclose the space and provide privacy to this residence.  Each Dawn Redwood weighs close to 14,000 pounds.  A steep grade required the use of a crane to lift these trees and set them into place where they will continue to grow even older.
