Local tree conditions

Historic neighborhoods, dogwoods and lake properties

Palestine is known for its Texas Dogwood Trails, where flowering dogwoods grow beneath tall pines and hardwoods. Protecting those understory trees means pruning and removing larger trees carefully, so the canopy above does not crush what grows below.

Around Athens and Frankston, lake and rural properties often have trees leaning over water, docks and driveways. View pruning, deadwood removal and taking down storm-damaged trees before they fail are the most common needs.

  • Common trees

    Pines, oaks and sweetgums, with flowering dogwoods in the understory.

  • Property types

    Historic in-town lots, lake properties and rural acreage.
