Insect & Disease Treatment
Consists of three insect and disease treatments. Spray applications are made to foliage for control of insects: Japanese Beetles, sawfly, tent caterpillar, cankerworms, aphids, scale, mites, leaf miners, and webworms. Diseases reduced include anthracnose, rust, apple scab, leaf spot, and powdery mildew. We would recommend a minimum of at least 2 treatments for maximum effectiveness!
Spring & Fall Fertilization
A balanced blend of fertilizers is injected into the root zone. This encourages root growth and builds plant strength for maximum summer growth and for surviving the cold winter stress.
Tree or Shrub Trimming and Removal
Deciduous and ornamental trees below 12 feet and deciduous and evergreen shrubs below 6 feet are trimmed and maintained to enhance the natural beauty of the plants. Groundcover and perennial areas are trimmed as required. This trimming is only a shaping of the plant material and controlling of outgrowth, not hard pruning of branches. Debris is removed and hauled away upon completion of each seasonal trimming.
