What to know locally in Pretoria
Jacaranda pruning in Waterkloof and Menlo Park is mostly about lifting low limbs off roofs and thinning heavy crowns before the summer storms. Silver Lakes and Woodhill body corporates often book several trees on one visit, which can help the price. Syringas along the Moreleta Spruit and the Apies River resprout freely after cutting, so ask about treating the stump when invaders are cleared.
What grows around Pretoria
Pretoria is the Jacaranda City, and the purple avenues of Arcadia, Brooklyn, Muckleneuk and Waterkloof are why. Those jacarandas are now large, heavy trees, often planted on pavements, and their roots lift paving and driveways. Further east, the estates of Faerie Glen, Silver Lakes, Mooikloof and Woodhill have younger gardens full of fast growing trees that outgrow small stands. The city sits warmer than Johannesburg, with hot summers, violent thunderstorms and lightning, and frost in the low valleys. Body corporates, homeowners and smallholders north of the Magaliesberg ask most for trimming off roofs, removing storm damaged trees and grinding stumps. Jacaranda has an invasive listing in some places, so check the listing for your tree and area.
