When plants, shrubs, and trees are not regularly pruned and trimmed, their  appearance and health suffer, costing you the investment you made in your landscape. Dead and diseased branches must be removed during pruning. Failing to do so will invite infestations of plant insects and systemic plant disease, which can severely harm or even kill your plant over time.

 

Trimming also moderates and directs your plant’s growth. Without trimming services, plant branches will grow unguided and the appearance of the plant can appear crowded and unkempt. Pruning will also stop branches from growing into to buildings, electrical power lines, and crowding other plants. We are also able to check your plants for any signs of disease or insects when performing a pruning service. Catching these issues early allows us to treat such problems and prolong the life of your ornamental plants

Plant and tree trimming and pruning are vital to their continuing health. However, it is often overlooked by many property owners. When trimming, we guide the overall size and shape of your plants, while pruning carefully removes branches for plant health reasons. Trimming services on your shrubs, hedges, and small trees can be done as little as twice a year for low-maintenance landscapes, but well-manicured landscapes may need this service on a monthly basis. On the other hand, pruning can only be done twice per year and at a time appropriate for the particular plant requiring the service.

Trimming and pruning are terms often used interchangeably, but they describe very different services. Trimming is done regularly throughout the year to control the shape and overall health of the plant. At Stretch Property Maintenance, we can trim hedges, plants, and shrubs on a monthly basis if it's requested, but most clients' needs are best served with three visits a year.

Pruning, however, is generally only done twice a year at most. This task is needed to remove dead, dying, or diseased branches that can weaken or kill a plant over time. For flowering shrubs, pruning will promote more numerous and fuller blooms. Pruning intensity and timing are based on the specific type of plant. Flowering shrubs are best pruned after it has finished blooming, while other plants do best when pruned in early or late winter.
