"

We could not be happier with the services provided by Jeff, Kristin, and Plant People. Jeff and his professional staff saved our infected trees and brought them back to good health. Jeff's expertise as a Master Arborist is unmatched and his integrity cannot be overstated. Undoubtedly, one of the best decisions we have made has been to contract with Plant People.

I was very impressed with Plant People from the first time I called and talked to Kristin. Then, when Jeff came and gave me an extraordinary lesson on trees, I was amazed!... I have also told many friends about your work and will continue to do so because you showed me you are excellent at what you do, you are fair and interested in helping.

I’ve used Jeff Lehde and his firm, Plant People for several years and can highly recommend them. Jeff is a board certified Master Arborist and has been instrumental in helping me select which trees to keep on a heavily wooded lot prior to building a house. Jeff is also advising me on how to care for and protect the trees I have on my property. I hope to continue using his services for many years to come.

Jeff,
You did a great job of providing just the right information for our trainees. We are most grateful for all the time you devoted to do this for us. Teaching is always the best when it is the “voice of experience” and yours certainly is.

We really appreciate your quick attention. We chose Plant People the first time because we trusted your knowledge of trees. We called on you again because we had faith you'd choose to save a tree that still had life left to live rather than default for its removal. Thank you for your work on our trees and your presence in our community. We are grateful.

Kristin & Jeff, it is important for us to support businesses that have integrity. If not... it will be our own fault when we can no longer find anyone to trust. Press on!

Quick Fix:

p>Have a young tree in an irrigated area with foliage that is green and lush on the top half, but is starting to brown and fall off on the lower half? Simply check out the direction of the spray from your sprinklers.

Although trees need to Slots Top
be watered, especially in a drought, often irrigation spray hits the lower leaves. It can leave salt behind that, when dried, can cause the leaves to burn, brown and fall off. It may not kill the tree, but it will certainly look unattractive.

If you feel this may be the case, try installing a low-angle emitter in the sprinkler head that is causing the problem, or adjust the sprinkler head by simply moving it in the ground so that it leans forward where the spray does not hit the foliage any more.
