What Would a Maintenance Program Cost?
Because each program is individually designed to fit the needs of a particular landscape, no standard price can be given without a site visit and assessment. You may have an interest in developing a plan for a few key trees in your landscape, or you may wish to have the entire landscape placed on a program. Maintenance programs can also be structured in different ways. For example, some programs charge a fee for monitoring and bill each treatment separately. Other programs have an annual fee that covers all monitoring visits for the season as well as many potential treatments.

These more comprehensive programs provide peace of mind in knowing that treatments for most potential problems are already covered by the program without additional charges. Specialized programs and flexibility are at the heart of any good program. You will find that we can design a maintenance program that fits your goals and budget.

March 2017: Plant Health Care: Part 3

Our clients have different landscape objectives, so there is no standard maintenance program. However, maintenance programs do have several common features. First, a general maintenance plan involves monitoring tree and shrub health. This step allows problems to be detected and managed before they become serious.

The monitoring may be as simple as annual visits to check on a few special trees in your landscape, or it may involve more frequent quarterly or monthly inspections of all your trees and shrubs. The frequency and complexity of your program depend on the size and diversity of your landscape, as well as your particular landscape goals.

Second, if a problem or potential problem is detected during a monitoring visit, we will work with you to develop a solution. This could be as simple as reducing lawn irrigation frequency so soil conditions aren’t too moist for tree roots. Other solutions include more detailed suggestions, such as pruning or spot applications of pesticides.

We will provide you with information about your trees and shrubs that will let you make appropriate management decisions for your budget and goals. Can you tolerate a disease or pest that only affects a plant cosmetically? Would replacing a shrub with a more disease-resistant cultivar be preferable to treatment? Plant Health Care is a program tailored to the needs of the client and his or her trees and shrubs.

As always, we look forward to helping you with any of your tree maintenance needs. Our trained arborists can make any recommendations as well as do just about any task you need done regarding the maintenance of your trees.

Tree Health Care
While trees are dominant features in your home landscape, they share this area with grasses, shrubs, and other plants. These plants are bedded in a common resource: soil. The roots of trees, shrubs, turf grass, and bedding plants comingle and compete for water and nutrients. The roots of a single mature tree may extend well into your lawn or flower beds. Every treatment applied to the lawn (fertilizer and herbicide, for example) can impact the appearance and vitality of a tree. Conversely, treatments applied to a tree, such as pruning and fertilizing, can influence the appearance and vitality of the underlying turf grass. The care of each plant in a landscape can affect the health of every plant in that landscape.

Why Contact Us?
We have the experience and training to detect many potential tree and shrub problems before they become life-threatening or hazardous. Arborists can also make tree and shrub recommendations, such as species selection and placement, to prevent problems from occurring in the first place. In addition, we can consult with other landscape and lawn care services you may use to ensure that the treatments are coordinated and will not be harmful to your trees and shrubs. Remember, the potential size and longevity of trees and shrubs warrants special attention in your landscape. Bedding plants can be replaced in a few short weeks and a lawn in a single growing season, but it can take a lifetime or more to replace a mature tree.

As always, we look forward to helping you with any of your tree maintenance needs. Our trained arborists can make any recommendations as well as do just about any task you need done regarding the maintenance of your trees.
