Tree & Shrub Care

Why Trees and Shrubs Need Professional Care

Trees and shrubs are the backbone of your landscape. They provide shade, privacy, beauty, and structure. But unlike grass or flowers, they require specialized knowledge to maintain properly. Wrong pruning techniques can damage or even kill a tree. Pests and diseases need early identification and treatment to prevent spreading.

In Hacienda Heights, our trees and shrubs face unique challenges. The hot, dry summers stress plants. Certain pests thrive in our climate. Some tree species common in our area have specific pruning requirements that differ from standard practices. Professional care ensures your woody plants stay healthy and look their best year after year.

We provide complete tree and shrub care including pruning, fertilization, pest control, disease treatment, and plant health evaluations. Whether you have a single ornamental tree or an entire landscape full of shrubs, we know how to keep them thriving.

Our Tree and Shrub Services

Here's what we offer to keep your trees and shrubs in top condition:

Pruning Done Right

Pruning is part art, part science. The goal is not just to cut branches. It's to improve the plant's structure, encourage healthy growth, and enhance its natural form. Different plants need different approaches.

We prune most trees during their dormant season, typically winter. This reduces stress and disease risk. Shrubs have varying requirements. Some bloom on new growth and should be pruned in late winter. Others bloom on old wood and need pruning right after flowering. We know the difference and time our work accordingly.

We also handle safety pruning. Branches hanging over structures, touching power lines, or blocking views need careful removal. We make clean cuts that heal properly and maintain the tree's health while eliminating hazards. When combined with proper mulching and bed care, your trees and shrubs will thrive.

Keeping Plants Healthy Year-Round

Prevention is always better than treatment. Regular inspections catch problems early when they are easier to fix. We look for signs of stress like wilting, discolored leaves, unusual growth patterns, or pest activity. Early detection means simpler solutions and healthier plants.

We also educate our clients about proper care between visits. Simple things like appropriate watering, avoiding damage to bark, and keeping mulch away from trunks make a big difference in plant health. When you understand what your trees and shrubs need, you become a partner in keeping your landscape beautiful. Our full-service landscape care includes ongoing support and advice for all your landscape needs.
