Plant Health Care
We recognize that plant health care is vital for the ongoing well-being of trees and shrubs. Key elements such as fertilization, insect and disease control, and soil remediation are essential for ensuring the vitality of your plants. Each of these components plays a crucial role in promoting healthy growth and resilience.
We are committed to delivering the highest standards in our landscaping tree planting process and take pride in the care we provide for your plants after installation. We believe that aftercare is crucial for the long-term sustainability and health of your plants. Our Plant Health Care department implements an environmentally responsible and effective approach through integrated pest management (IPM).
IPM includes essential cultural practices for plant health, such as proper planting, mulching, watering, and pruning. We also prioritize monitoring your plants to identify any issues early on and respond appropriately to ensure their ongoing vitality.
We emphasize the importance of deep root fertilization for your trees and shrubs as an effective way to replenish nutrients that may be lacking due to poor soil conditions. Unlike in natural ecosystems, nutrients often aren’t returned to the soil in a finished landscape. Our various fertilizers are specifically chosen to address the unique deficiencies of your plants, ensuring they receive the tailored care they need for optimal health.
Some of the most common insects and diseases we encounter in the landscape that we treat include, but are not limited to:
- Beech Leaf Disease
- Hemlock Woolly Adelgid
- Elongate Hemlock Scale
- Magnolia Scale
- Leaf Chewing Insects
- Tree Boring insects
- Phytophthora Bleeding Canker
- Needle Cast
- Leaf Spot
- Anthracnose
