Prepare Your Soil for a Thriving Spring
Prepare Your Soil for a Thriving Spring
Healthy soil is the foundation of a vibrant landscape. As we look ahead to spring, now is the perfect time to assess and improve your soil. A professional soil health check can reveal essential details about nutrient levels, pH balance, and overall soil structure. By understanding your soil’s condition, we can make informed decisions to ensure your plants thrive in the coming growing season.
Winter Pruning: The Secret to Healthier, Stronger Trees
Winter Pruning: The Secret to Healthier, Stronger Trees
Winter is an ideal time to care for your trees through dormant season pruning. With their leaves gone, trees reveal their structure, making it easier to assess and remove dead, damaged, or poorly placed branches. This precise approach reduces stress on the tree and sets the stage for healthier growth in the spring.
