How often do you prune? #

The frequency of pruning varies depending on the type of trees and shrubs in your landscape. As a general guideline, we typically recommend pruning at least once a year to maintain the health and aesthetics of your plants. However, the specific pruning schedule may be adjusted based on factors such as the growth rate, plant species, and overall health of the individual plants. During our initial consultation or assessment, our team will evaluate your landscape and provide specific recommendations for the appropriate pruning frequency for your trees and shrubs.

What does the overall timeline of the year look like for work to be performed? #

The overall timeline for landscape work is influenced by several factors, including the services needed and the geographical location of your property. Our team will work closely with you to develop a customized yearly plan that outlines the recommended schedule for different tasks throughout the seasons. This plan will ensure that your landscape receives the necessary care and maintenance at the appropriate times. The timeline may include tasks such as spring cleanup, trimming and pruning, bed edging, mulch installation, fall pruning, and winter preparation. By following this tailored schedule, we can help you achieve and maintain a healthy and beautiful landscape throughout the year (see our landscape maintenance schedule).

What is your mowing height advice? #

We adjust our mowing height based on factors such as grass type, season, and weather conditions. Typically, our mowers are set between 3″ and 3.5″. Our team will determine the appropriate mowing height to promote healthy growth and maintain an aesthetically pleasing lawn.
