Prepped For Pruning
A change in season is all about
fresh starts. We do this through spring cleaning our homes or updating wardrobes,
but it is also important to consider your plants. Cold weather is not just
uncomfortable, it can be detrimental. Even when that mercury starts to rise and
the days become warmer, there are bits and pieces left behind. Set your green
space up for success by trimming these away and making room for new growth!
The Ins and Outs of Pruning
Between freezing nights and heavy
rains, your plant life is up against a lot. This can affect anything from
hedges to trees, shrubs and even the heartiest plants. When everything is
growing green, it is easy to catch sight of dead blooms, bald patches or
browning stalks. Some of these might be easily reachable while others are
heavier and higher up. No matter which areas you are dealing with, there are
setbacks to taking these problems on yourself.
Safety: Reaching upward to cut down branches can result in
serious bodily harm. There is nothing fun about having branches raining down on
you. Handling power tools is difficult enough! A quick running blade, a heavy
tool and a lack of experience can be extremely dangerous and that is why it is
so important to leave the experts to handle these hard to reach spaces.
Results: Plants might seem like they are built tough but even
one wrong snip can mean large-scale damage. Taking the bloom off of a rose bush
at the wrong angle can stunt the whole stem moving forward. No matter how many
books, magazines or search engines that you consult on the best process, it is
always best to leave the pruning to the professionals.
The EMMMOW Approach
The Eenie Meenie Miny Mow!
approach to pruning all begins with a proper inspection. Without understanding
the condition of your greenery, there is no way to get a proper result. Instead
of just snapping away at problem areas, our specialists take everything from
type, condition and surrounding areas into consideration. Once unwanted limbs
are removed, they are bagged up and carted away, so you are not stuck with the
mess!
Services can be scheduled as part
of your routine or can be performed on an emergency call-out basis.
