Winter is Prime Planting Season for Trees, Shrubs, Vines and Annual Flowers for commercial landscape maintenance. They often establish more quickly when they are in the cool winter season. The cooler weather allows the plants root system to acclimate more quickly from transplant shock.

Flower Tips from Our Commercial Landscape Company

• Reduce the Landscape watering frequency for established plantings

• Remove trees that pose a critical risk to the public’s safety

• Fertilize Trees, Shrubs as appropriate

• Fertilize Lawns as appropriate

• Have trees inspected by an experienced arborist, prune dead, diseased or unsafe branches.

• Remove weak limbs in Trees

• Plant New Trees and Shrubs

• Mulch Trees and shrubs as appropriate

• Inspect Plant material for disease and pests treating appropriately

• Conduct the appropriate water schedule for the cooler weather
