Tree Trimming is Essential

Another preventative form of tree shrub and hedge service is picking the right plant for your property. Decorative tree shrubs and hedges can certainly add beauty and value to a lawn, but if they aren’t suited to your particular area, they might end up being more trouble than they are worth. Have your soil’s acidity and composition checked before you pick out your tree or shrub. The speed at which the soil drains, the percentage of clay and sand, and the soil’s pH level should all be taken into account when deciding on the hedge your property will host. An easy way to ensure a well-growing, low-maintenance hedge tree or shrub is to opt for native species. Native tree shrubs will be more likely to flourish and require little or no extra watering or fertilizer to thrive.

Though there are certainly exceptions, tree trimming and shrub and hedge pruning is generally done during the early spring or late winter. This is because it is the time of year when plants are already preparing for new growth. Flowering shrubs and trees that are meant to bloom at this time of year, however, are often pruned during early summer, after the flowers have run their course. That said, when a shrub is damaged by physical trauma (either natural or man made), it should be pruned at once, regardless of the season. This is where tree trimming is essential. Diseased trees and shrubs should also be pruned as soon as the ailment becomes apparent. It is a good idea to rinse the clippers you are using between cuts to hinder the spread of disease.
