Mbombela notes on tree care & clean-up
Fast Lowveld growth means crown thinning every year or two in Valencia and the gardens near the Crocodile River. Mango and avocado orchards around White River and Hazyview are pruned after harvest to keep trees low and open. Syringa and other invaders on stream banks need follow-up. Wood chipping on site makes good mulch for subtropical beds.
Trees in Mbombela
Mbombela sits in the warm Lowveld, and things grow fast here. Gardens fill with flamboyants, African tulip trees, jacarandas, palms, figs and strelitzias, and a tree that was pruned two years ago can be back over the roof. Around town, mango, avocado, litchi and macadamia orchards cover the hills, and bush on the granite koppies holds indigenous trees such as marula, which is protected. Humid summers bring heavy rain and storms that drop limbs on roofs and lines. Homeowners and estates ask for regular crown work and palm cleaning, farmers ask for orchard thinning and old tree removal, and developers clear bush on new stands. Check whether a tree is protected before you cut.

The requests we see from Mbombela usually come from:
- Homeowners: deciding whether a big old tree near the house can stay or must come down
- Estates, complexes and body corporates: written tree surveys for body corporates and estates with a yearly work plan
- Farms, smallholdings and plantations: checking old windbreaks, homestead trees and orchards for decline and borers
