Customer Testimonials

“We appreciate the time and attention that your Arbor Patrol team takes to maintain the overall health and appearance of the trees, bushes and general grounds. As they say, you can only have one first impression and the impression the grounds make on both residents and visitors alike is always positive thanks to your caring maintenance. Just as the trees continue to grow and blossom under your care, we hope our relationship with SavATree does the same.”

William Toedter
Southampton, NY

“After four different unsatisfactory visits with so-called arborists, I found SavaTree... I was most impressed with the professionalism of David [my arborists] and his colleagues. They were most knowledgeable, fair with their assessment about what needed to be done, yet very attuned with what my concerns. I highly recommend them without any hesitation. In a field where there is an abundance of folks looking to take advantage of consumers, SavaTree, David and crew strike me as incredibly honest and proud arborists who do a fantastic job.”

Debbie Durkin
Silver Spring, MD

“I am a new and highly satisfied customer of SavATree. For 50 years I have lived in the same house in the Greenhaven area, and in that time I have never had a tree company that gave me such fine service.”

Joan Kleinbard
Rye, NY

“It is always a pleasure working with SavATree as your company provides the best plant, tree and lawn health care that we have experienced at the Ives. Always professional, courteous and responsive to our needs, SavATree’s services have provided our employees and patrons with pleasant outdoor experiences in an insect free environment for several years.”

Kathleen G. Gallagher
Executive Director
The Charles Ives Center for the Arts

Danbury, CT

“For over 14 years, I have entrusted the care of my trees, plants and orchard to SavATree. Their highly qualified arborists have exacting standards and understand how to maintain the health and form of the various species of trees on my property. I admire the artistic skill that goes into the pruning and love the colorful blossoms, fruits and foliage that flourish as a result of their impeccable care.”

Martha Stewart
Katonah, NY

"Efficient, high quality, professional competence — all at a competitive sum. At first [Alison] Pottage won me over by her solid knowledge as an arborist, then the crew did their job to her specifications on our 60 to 70 foot oaks within a remarkable period of time -- and left the grounds quite clean.”

Bob Busser
Philadelphia, PA

“You take on a job, call it a problem, gigantic or small, and you go to it. True Professionals. I am at peace for having found SavATree. Sometimes bills are paid grudgingly. I pay with respect to a company whose pride lives up to its logo. It’s love of what you do and I thank you.”

Grow Cut Flowers: Cultivating Your Own Cutting Garden

There's nothing like the color and scent of fresh cut flowers to brighten up your home and your spirits. However, if you have bought cut flowers for indoor bouquets, you know how expensive this indulgence can be. It doesn't have to be. By following some basic gardening rules, you can grow your own cut flowers for enjoyment both on your landscape, and inside your home.

In order to perform to its fullest potential, any garden needs the right air, light, water, soil, insect, disease and animal protection.

Air - Before planting your cutting garden, make sure you thoroughly turn the soil over with a spade or pitchfork to create air pockets.

Light - Outdoor flowers must have four to six hour of light each day.

Water - Water holds nutrients so that plants can draw the nourishment. In addition, water carries off plant waste products as it evaporates from leaf surfaces and is essential for photosynthesis. Consequently, healthy, flowering plants need a great deal of water.

Soil - After turning the soil over, it is important to add humus and compost to nourish beneficial microorganisms and add nutrients to the soil in your cutting garden.

Fencing - In some areas, watch out for those cute little rabbits, deer, raccoons, skunks and chipmunks. They like cut flowers too!

Plant Pests - Observation is one of the main keys to controlling harmful garden insects. Any garden with a concentration of one particular plant is an invitation to insects. However, if you mix your plantings or "companion plant," as it is called, there will be less chance of insects invading your cutting garden. For example, the Nasturtium flower will repel aphids while Tansy, a pretty herb, is known to discourage cutworms and cabbage worms. Rue, Marigolds, Asters, Garlic and Chives also deter insects and are attractive and easy to grow.

Reaping the Rewards - While there are thousands of cut flower combinations you can choose for your garden, if you grow just these types of flowers, you will have a dazzling and useful cutting garden that will bloom from early spring through the fall!
