What to know locally in Pretoria

Silverton and Pretoria West have tool hire shops that rent chainsaws, chipper trailers and stump grinders, and garden equipment dealers along the main roads of Lynnwood and Montana sell pole saws and safety gear. Pretoria East estates often have gate rules for trailers and noise times, so check them before hiring a towable chipper. A trained operator is worth asking for on a stump grinder.

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.
