Pruning & Plant Health
We offer the following landscape maintenance services:
Expert Pruning
-
Rehabilitation pruning can often save neglected or overgrown landscapes and restore their original beauty without the need for more disruptive and expensive plant removal and replanting.
-
Regular seasonal pruning will maintain plant health, maximize flowering, and keep the aesthetic shape and balance of your plantings. I offer customized pruning programs based on the needs of your landscape.
Soil Testing & Remediation
-
Healthy plants require healthy soil, and a soil test is used to identify nutrient deficits/surpluses and the level of organic matter in the soil. Based on the test results I will recommend a soil treatment plan if necessary.
Insect and Disease Management
-
I follow Integrated Pest Management (IPM) methods to effectively monitor, prevent, and control problems. When necessary I use highly effective natural products; when it is essential to use organic or synthetic chemicals I do so sparingly, as one might use medicine for a specific illness.
