Plant Care
Plant Health Care is a concept that focuses on environmental, cultural and biological stresses which are detrimental to the health of trees, shrubs and ground cover. Not only does a healthy landscape significantly increases the value of your property, it also attracts birds, butterflies and other forms of wildlife.

Unfortunately, our landscape is subjected to a myriad of stresses such as poor soil, drought, excessive moisture, poor planting techniques, insects, disease, mechanical and construction damage.

These stresses diminish plants natural defense systems and increase the possibility of insect and/or disease infestation. If not detected or treated, these problems can eventually lead to serious damage or death of the plant.

A Better Solution
In the past, a blanket spray was applied to the entire landscape with residual pesticides. No concern for beneficial insects or wildlife was the standard in arborculture. Indiscriminately spraying to eradicate all insects harms other beneficial forms of wildlife and is no longer an accepted practice by the Department of Agriculture, EPA or the public.
