The native trees of Northern Virginia are widely varied because of the climate. In the newly forested areas, the most common conifers are Northern Red Cedars and Virginia Pine, while the deciduous trees are a mix of Poplar and Oak. Recently, the Norway Maple has been identified as the most common non-native tree. It is actually considered to be an invasive species now.
The most common problem that our clients are facing is damage and failure to thrive in the root structure of trees. The cause of this is generally disturbance and compaction of soil as a result of construction. This has lead Pro Arbor to focus on soil remediation for many of our clients’ properties.
