Tree and Shrub Care 101_ How to Keep Your Yard Lush and Healthy All Year

Maintaining the health and appearance of your trees and shrubs is essential for creating a vibrant, beautiful yard. While these plants may seem low-maintenance, regular care is crucial for their longevity and overall landscape appeal. In this guide, we’ll cover the fundamental tree and shrub care practices that will keep your yard looking lush and healthy year-round—and how Landesign Plus can make it easier for you.

1. Pruning for Growth and Shape
Pruning is essential to maintain the structure and health of trees and shrubs. By removing dead or diseased branches, pruning encourages healthy new growth and ensures that your plants maintain their natural shape. It also improves air circulation and sunlight penetration, which helps prevent diseases and pests.

At Landesign Plus, we provide professional pruning services tailored to each plant’s needs, ensuring your trees and shrubs thrive throughout the year.

2. Disease Prevention and Treatment
Trees and shrubs can be susceptible to diseases such as blight, fungal infections, and root rot. Early detection and treatment are key to stopping the spread of these diseases and protecting your entire landscape.

Our team at Landesign Plus is skilled in identifying and treating common plant diseases. We use targeted treatments to protect your plants and prevent issues from worsening, helping you maintain a healthy yard.

3. Seasonal Care for Optimal Health
Different seasons require different types of care. For instance, trees and shrubs benefit from fertilization in the spring, protection against pests in the summer, and mulch to insulate roots during the winter. Seasonal maintenance ensures that your plants remain strong and resilient, no matter the weather.

Landesign Plus offers year-round tree and shrub care, customizing our services to fit the specific needs of your landscape as the seasons change.

4. Mulching for Moisture Retention and Protection
Mulching around your trees and shrubs helps retain soil moisture, regulate temperature, and prevent weed growth. A good layer of mulch acts as a protective barrier, ensuring your plants stay hydrated and insulated throughout the year.

Our experts at Landesign Plus provide high-quality mulching services that promote the health of your trees and shrubs while keeping your yard looking neat and well-maintained.

5. Proper Watering TechniquesWhile overwatering can lead to root rot, underwatering can cause your plants to become stressed and susceptible to disease. Knowing when and how much to water is essential for healthy growth.

Landesign Plus can help you develop a proper watering schedule, ensuring that your trees and shrubs receive the right amount of hydration without the risk of overwatering.
