Tree pruning at Olga's - Saturday 3/26

We were lucky to have the opportunity to work on the trees at Olga's Cup & Saucer this weekend... If you don't already know, Olga's is a great little bakery/eatery/coffee shop at Point and Richmond Streets in Providence's recently re-named 'Knowledge District' (aka Jewelry District). The landscape was designed and installed by Michael Veracka a dozen or so years ago, and is anchored by a large pre-existing Siberian Elm. Two beautiful Apricots grace the entrance, and pear trees, viburnum, and an evergreen Magnolia round out the larger plantings. The Elm needed lots of deadwood removed, as well as some structural cables installed. The ornamentals received some crown cleaning and clearance and structural pruning. It turned out to be a nice day (eventually), and I am very happy to be able to care for such landmark trees in Providence!
