Bigger blooms, healthier shrubs.

Six treatments a year feed your trees and shrubs from the roots up and help keep insects and disease off the leaves.

Common questions

How much does Tree & Shrub Care cost?
Your quote gives the exact price. It is priced by the size of your property, and prices are before tax.
What if insects or disease come back between visits?
Call or text us, and we’ll come back and treat the affected plants at no charge. Treatments take 10 to 14 days to show their full results, so please allow that long after a visit before asking for a service call.
Do I need to be home?
No. Please leave the gates unlocked and keep pets inside on service days. We let you know about a day before each visit and leave a note afterward.
When can people and pets go near treated plants?
Each product’s label sets how long people and pets should stay off a treated area, and we follow it. Your technician will tell you what that means for your treatment.
Can I add it to my lawn care?
Yes. It can go alongside our Lawn Care program, or you can have it on its own.
Do you trim or remove trees?
No. We feed trees and shrubs and treat them for insects and disease. For trimming, removal or planting, we recommend a certified arborist or tree service.
