Planting trees on your property has plenty of benefits. They provide oxygen, shade, and fruits, subdue carbon dioxide, and improve the aesthetic of the area. But there is a science to planting trees. One important factor to consider when planting trees is biodiversity. Having a variety of trees, shrubs, flowers, and plants offers pest and disease control, encourages a balanced ecosystem, and increases the value of your property. Sesmas Tree Service helped put together this article to review the benefits of tree diversity. If you have any specific questions or concerns, or if you would like to hire an ISA-certified arborist, then call Sesmas Tree Service today.

Tree Diversity and Landscaping

Offers Pest & Disease Control

There is a countless number of pests and diseases that affect trees, and it is near impossible to completely avoid them. However, there are steps to take toward reducing the risk of a complete takeover by pests and disease. One step you can take is providing diversity.

When you have too many of the same species, pests that thrive on or diseases that primarily infect that species will proliferate. A lack of biodiversity can cause those pests and diseases to thrive. For instance, Elm trees were extremely popular in the early 1900s and planted plentifully. The Dutch Elm Disease took over and quickly spread, killing more than 70 million Elm trees.

Encourages A Balanced Ecosystem

Plants and animals rely on one another to thrive. Planting a diverse variety of trees and plants invites bees, bunnies, birds and other animals to turn your area to a paradise. A certified arborist can help you choose the appropriate plants, trees, and shrubs to encourage a balanced ecosystem.

Increases the Value of Your Property

Customer Reviews

3 large Leyland Cypress trees removed near front of our home. Excellent service, professional crew, very competitive pricing for superior work! Rolando provided the initial estimate and the  follow up and was the best in terms of customer relations. I'd both use this company again AND highly recommend them.

Susan Hitchcock

This is the 2nd time we have used Sesmas Tree Service. They are a wonderful company to deal with. They were on time, professional, and very thorough. They cleaned up prior to leaving and went out of their way to protect our plants and landscaping. And they kept to their proposal with no hidden cost or add ons. Definitely a five star experience!

Gene McFadden

Wow!  I deal with tree services in my professional work and I can honestly say Sesmas is by far the most professional, best equipped, efficient, safety conscious, and communicative service I've ever encountered.  Their price was very reasonable and they even went so far as to include additional work without increasing the price.  Call them!  Now! They are very quick to respond.

Scott McLendon

We've used Sesmas several times and have always received excellent service.  Estimates are quick and easy and the crew is efficient and leaves the property clean of debris.  Recently we needed a tree removed next to a heavily landscaped area.  Sebastian went over everything with me in detail and listened to my concerns.  The crew did an excellent job in removing the tree with minimal disturbance to the surrounding area.  We are pleased and will consider them again in the future for pruning and tree removal.

Tonia Griswold

Sesmas Tree Service was amazing! I had two dead trees cut and a lot of trees that were already down on my property removed. Sebastian came out and sent the quote in writing within 24 hours. We were in the process of scheduling the service when a slot opened up sooner snd I was able to go ahead and get the work done. Everything was explained ahead of time for what to expect. The crew was very efficient and professional.  All of the work and cleanup was done in one day. I would recommend Sesmas for your tree cutting/cleanup needs.

LaDora Woods

I hired Sesmas to cut down a very tricky tree that was hanging over my house as well as a few large limbs. They did a great job and had the machinery to get the job done right.

Perry Hartman

Great experience with Sesmas. They were meticulous with my tree removal, safe and efficient. David’s communication throughout the process was much appreciated. Highly recommend!

Lindsay Ellenburg

Great experience with Sesmas Tree Service. The arborist who came out was a Board Certified Master Arborist, and you could immediately tell he knew his stuff. He took the time to explain what needed to be done, gave us clear options, and helped us feel confident from start to finish. The whole process was easy and professional. We’ll definitely use them again.

Ed Martin

A variety of trees, plants, and flowers will beautify your property with an assortment of colors, patterns, and scents. This enhanced curb appeal is sure to increase the value of your property. In fact, a professional landscape and trees are estimated to increase the value of a residential property by up to ten percent. If you are looking to sell your home in the future, then getting started on improving your curb appeal can increase the number of prospective buyers and improve the value of the property.
