Ornamental tree and shrub care for Tacoma Park, MD 20912
We have developed our own custom blended fertilizers to service our client's properties. We do
not use phosphorous in our blends preferring instead to approach the landscape with organic
based products. For tree and shrub care we use an approach that is pro-active.
It is a better approach to keep the overall health of the tree and shrub as the basis for the
program. We inspect your plantings; apply only the necessary products including wax coating
in the fall and dormant oil in the spring. Keeping insects from becoming problems and keeping
a close look at the possible fungus diseases make our tree and shrub plans superior. Contact us

The Tree/Shrub program will protect your investment in your landscape by controlling:
- Insects
- Diseases
- Harsh winter winds and ice
- Essential nutrients in the soil
How? Our customized 6 step program will keep your landscape healthy and beautiful.
- Early Spring: We apply a horticultural oil treatment before insects have a chance to develop. This oil prevents insects from hatching, before they can damage your landscape. We apply a balanced slow release fertilizer with micro-nutrients and iron to the root zone of your plants. These essential nutrients will promote root development, and foliage growth.
- Mid-Spring: Each plant is individually treated to protect them from spring insects (lace bugs, caterpillars, and mitts) and disease (leaf spot, scale, and rust). Nutrients are applied as needed.
- Early Summer: Each plant is individually treated to protect them from summer insects (Bag Worms, mites, and beetles) and Disease (powdery mildew, leaf spot, scale) Nutrients are applied as needed.
- Late Summer: Summer is when insect and disease problems often spread quickly. Both insects and diseases are monitored and treated as needed. Nutrients are applied as needed.
- Fall: Deep root injection to susceptible plants with systemic insecticide provides protection against harmful pests like emerald ash borer, hemlock wooly adelgid, and scale plus a fully-soluble fertilizer product that provides both chemical and biological fertility. Apply balanced fertilizer slow release fertilizer to all other plants.
- Winter: We apply a wax coat to protect your plants from drying out in the cold and ice of the winter and harsh winds.
