TREE PRUNING & TREE FELLING IN IBIZA
Tree Pruning & Felling for Mediterranean Trees
explained
Why Should You Prune Your Trees Routinely?
Tree pruning is much more than just cutting and trimming branches; it is about understanding the structure and type of tree, its growth pattern, and its place and importance within the garden. Good pruning methods work with the natural character of the tree rather than changing its character or forcing it into an artificial shape. The right tree pruning services maintain healthy growth of the plant, improves structure, removes damaged or unwanted growth, and allows trees to remain beautiful and resilient within Ibiza's climate.
With our careful pruning and tree cutting services, we aim to preserve the health, character and natural form of your Mediterranean trees. Pruning serves many purposes for your plants and trees. Purposeful pruning removes dead, damaged and diseased branches. Regular tree cutting encourages new growth of healthy branches and plants, and supports fruit production for suitable trees.
Speaking from the beautification aspect, pruning improves the structure of young trees and helps in maintaining its size and shape. Routine pruning allows better air movement and light to filter through the canopy.
Pruning trees keeps their branches away from other buildings, pathways and other structures where necessary.
However, it is very important to understand that not every tree needs heavy or frequent pruning. Different species have different requirements, and frequency and intensity of pruning varies across individual trees.
Introducing
Tree Pruning & Felling Services
At Gardens of Ibiza, we are known for our expertise working with Mediterranean species, including (but not limited to) Olive, Grapes, Carob Tree, Fig, Almond, and Pine. We understand the important role that local conditions and climate play for Ibiza planting.
Tree Pruning Services will differ according to the species of trees, age and maturity, its health, location, season, and surrounding landscape.
Tree Assessment
Our team begins by observing the tree's structure, condition and relationship with its surroundings. This assessment guides every decision that follows.
Selective Pruning
Only the branches that require pruning are removed. This preserves the natural form and balance of the tree wherever possible.
Seasonal Care
Pruning is planned around the species, climate and purpose of the tree. This ensures the tree will stay healthy throughout the year in all seasons.
Clean Finish
Branches and garden waste are cleared after the work, leaving the surrounding landscape neat and cared for, ready to enjoy from the very same day.
Tree Felling & Removal in Ibiza
For healthy gardens, our main aim is mostly selective pruning rather than unnecessary cutting of trees everywhere. We use our cutting methods for trees or branches that need to be removed when they are:
- Dead
- Damaged
- Diseased
- Crossing or poorly positioned
- Creating an access issue
- Interfering with structures
- Creating an unsafe condition
When a tree has to come down, we take care of it from start to finish. Large trees are felled in sections where space is tight, using a crane truck when needed, while your house, walls and plants are protected. Branches are chipped on site and can return to your garden as mulch. Where a permit may be needed, we let you know before we start.
Inspiration
Inspiring Garden Siesta
A tree is rarely an isolated feature; Its canopy, shade, roots, movement, and seasonal character, all influence the garden around it. More importantly, well-maintained and beautiful trees contribute to the identity of an Ibiza garden, and the identity of our team at Gardens of Ibiza.
A well-pruned tree should not change its character and identity, but should still feel like itself. With the right care and love, its natural character becomes even more healthier, its structure stronger and its place within the garden and the house more harmonious.

What Does Tree Pruning or Felling Cost?
Costs vary with the size and condition of the tree - full removal typically runs between €500 and €1,000, while selective pruning is priced per tree based on scope and access, starting from around €150. We always assess each tree on-site before providing a firm quote, so pricing reflects the actual work involved.
