Ornamental tree and shrub care for Wheaton, MD 20915

Our company has been working in the area of Wheaton for over 22 years. We are leaders in the field of an organic approach to tree and shrub care. Our techs are trained and can find problems, treat the problems and save the tree. It is a better approach to prevent and stay proactive than to react to a real disaster in the landscape.

Late in the fall our techs will do a careful inspection followed by a wax coat to protect your shrubbery from drying out in the winter. In early spring we apply a dormant oil to keep insects from hatching. During the rest of the year we carefully inspect, treat and fertilize. Contact us for a free consultation.

Read about Top Tree and Shrub Health Problems

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.
