Hess Tree Co.

Engineering Nature. Delivering Legacy.

At Hess Tree Co., large specimen tree supply and installation is not a specialty — it is our foundation. For more than 30 years, we have sourced, engineered, transported, and installed massive, mature trees and palms on projects where failure is not an option. We operate at the intersection of engineering, logistics, and landscape architecture to deliver results few firms in the world can execute.

We lead complex large-scale specimen tree supply and high-caliber installations for elite residential estates, championship golf developments, and destination-level resort projects. Architects, developers, and contractors trust us when mature trees must be strategically sourced, delivered, and set at scale — without compromise to structure, aesthetics, or long-term performance.

Our work spans new golf course construction, resort expansions, urban redevelopments, and large-scale amenity builds, where mature trees are not decorative elements but critical architectural and experiential anchors. These projects demand precision, accountability, and deep technical understanding — standards we meet daily.

From early-stage feasibility through final set, our consulting-driven process covers sourcing strategy, species selection, root-ball engineering, transport logistics, crane planning, site access, soil preparation, stabilization engineering, and post-install monitoring. Every tree is treated as a structural asset and engineered for longevity.

We collaborate nationally with best-in-class partners to execute large-scale specimen tree supply and installation programs that define spaces, anchor viewsheds, and establish instant maturity — creating places that feel complete from day one.

A Legacy That Grew from the Ground Up

Hess Trees began more than 30 years ago in California, rooted in the specialized supply of high-caliber specimen trees for luxury landscapes and premier developments. What began as a focused sourcing operation evolved into one of the most technically capable large-tree firms in the industry.

For more than two decades, Hess Trees executed complex large-scale tree relocation projects across challenging terrain and high-profile developments. From steep hillsides to dense urban infill sites, our relocation work demanded engineering precision, specialized equipment, logistical discipline, and deep horticultural understanding. That period of execution defined our reputation for solving problems others considered impossible.

As our portfolio expanded beyond state lines and into international markets, so did the scale and technical complexity of the projects we handled. Today, Hess Trees operates as an international consulting authority, drawing on decades of hands-on tree relocation and field execution experience to advise on high-profile developments around the world. We provide developers, architects, golf course designers, and estate owners with strategic insight rooted in real-world performance.

Through every phase of our evolution—from specimen supply to large-scale relocation to strategic advisory—our commitment has remained constant: precision, accountability, and respect for living systems.

This isn’t just our business. It’s our legacy—and we continue to build on it every day.
