“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.”

“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.”

“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.”

"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.”

SavATree Provides Peaceful Existence For Old Soldier in Washington, D.C.
Washington, DC —February 11, 2002—SavATree, a leader in Northeast region tree and shrub care, has taken responsibility for the care of the copper beech tree located at the President Lincoln and Soldiers’ Home National Monument in northwest Washington, D.C.
SavATree has provided the tree, locally referred to as Old Soldier, with all of the necessary nutrients and other organic biostimulants that allow for a peaceful existence. These nutrients will allow the sprouts from vegetatively rooted branches provided by the original tree to continue Old Soldier’s gene pool after it is pruned down to the basewood. Copper beech produces vegetatively rooted branches as a defense mechanism to preserve itself and its genotype. It is very fortunate for the community that Old Soldier performed this branch propagation.
It is critical at this point in the tree’s life that two things occur,” said International Society of Arboriculture (ISA) Certified Arborist Thomas Marino , “First, the copper beech and the sprouts from its vegetatively produced branches must be given a proper diet monitored frequently by professional arborists.” SavATree developed a protocol for this situation while working on a similar copper beech located at the historic Lyndhurst property in Tarrytown , NY .
Marino added, “Because the tree is in a state of severe decline, we need to alleviate the likelihood of hazardous limbs falling from the tree and striking passersby. As the copper beech tree and its vegetatively rooted branches continue to develop, activity will be modified.”
SavATree Vice President Ralph Robbins said, “As an organization, we are thrilled to be involved with this important piece of United States history. This is especially important to us in the wake of recent historical events. We will take good care of Old Soldier’s offspring.”
The central feature of the President Lincoln and Soldiers’ Home National Monument is a Gothic Revival cottage. Situated on a hilltop that commanded sweeping views of 19th century Washington, the cottage served as the first national Soldiers’ Home since its founding in 1851 by the United States government. President Lincoln resided there from June 1862 and November 1864. While at the Soldiers’ Home, Lincoln spent time with his family, played with his son Tad, read books to relieve the fierce pressures of leading our nation, and worked on drafting the Emancipation Proclamation.
