Hedges serve many purposes on a property. Hedges create a beautiful natural fence that secures your privacy and at the same time, enhances the beauty of your garden. However, it is important to trim hedges properly to ensure healthy growth.
Trimming should take place twice a year. Spring hedge trimming removes dead leaves and branches from the winter season. The second round of hedge trimming comes in summertime when hedges reach their maximum growth.
In late summer, shrubs and hedges slow their growth, because they’re preparing for the winter -saving nutrients and moisture. This means it’s the perfect time to reshape them!
Besides looking beautiful and adding to curb appeal, there are hidden benefits to proper shrub and hedge trimming!
Health – Removing dead or dying branches helps the plant grow stronger and reduces the spread of plant disease. Trimming also clears the way for smaller plants near the hedge to grow strong.
Improve Flowering – Regular trimming and maintenance helps plants flower and grow lush. We’ve seen a lilac bush come alive with a second round of buds after trimming!
Disease Prevention – Unfortunately, many homeowners don’t realize their plants are diseased until it’s far progressed. Regular maintenance by a professional team will identify and prevent diseases from attacking your yard. Our team will spot issues early on and assist with treatment.
