What types of trees are suitable for shaping?
Many tree species are suitable for shaping, but some are more adaptable than others. Evergreen trees like junipers, yews, and arborvitae are popular choices for topiary because they retain their shape well.

We can assess your existing trees or help you select new trees that are well-suited for shaping.

The time it takes to shape a tree depends on the species, the desired shape, and the initial size of the tree.

We’ll provide you with a realistic timeframe during your consultation.
