What's Included in Our Tree & Shrub Programs

Ornamentals face different threats than turf: insects, disease, and nutrient deficiencies that can go unnoticed until real damage is done. Our program includes six applications throughout the year, built to catch and treat these issues before they take hold.

  • Six seasonal applications annually

  • Fertilization and soil building to strengthen root and plant health

  • Disease prevention treatments

  • Insect control to protect against damaging pests

  • Ongoing evaluation so problems are caught early, not after visible damage

Why Ornamental Health Matters

Trees and shrubs are a long-term investment in your property, and they're also some of the most expensive parts of a landscape to replace. A shrub that looks fine one season can be in serious decline the next if a pest or nutrient issue goes untreated. Regular monitoring catches these problems while they're still manageable.
