The art of landscaping

Not all shrubs work in all places. There is an art to what kind needs to go where. Bring a picture of where you are wanting to landscape and lets work together to make a plan. Color and size vary for all shrubs, so having a plan is important. 

How to Plant

Make sure to dig the hole big enough.  Dig a planting hole two to three feet wider than the roots to allow plenty of room for the roots. Once you place plants root ball in the hole, cover the roots completely with dirt. Press firmly to make sure there is full contact with roots and dirt. Cover dirt with mulch to help keep root moist. Finally, make sure to water the shrub immediately after planting.

Pruning Tips

2) Once you have shaped the plant, seal the plant with Pruning sealer to keep the bugs and disease out.
