Tree & Shrub Care

Healthy trees and shrubs enhance curb appeal, provide shade, and improve property value. Regular care—including fertilization, disease prevention, and pest control—helps maintain their strength, longevity, and beauty while reducing the risk of decline.

Most trees and shrubs benefit from fertilization twice a year, typically in spring and fall. The exact schedule depends on the species, soil conditions, and overall health of your plants.

Some of the most common diseases affecting trees and shrubs in Oakland, Germantown, Collierville, and surrounding areas include:

• Powdery Mildew – White powdery coating on leaves.
• Leaf Spot – Circular brown or yellow spots on foliage.
• Anthracnose – Causes wilting, browning, and leaf drop.
• Root Rot – Affects water absorption and weakens the tree.

Regular preventative treatments can protect your landscape from disease outbreaks.

Common tree and shrub pests in Tennessee include:

• Aphids – Tiny insects that cause leaf curling and sap loss.
• Spider Mites – Cause yellowing and browning of foliage.
• Bagworms – Create webbed nests and strip leaves.
• Scale Insects – Suck nutrients from stems and leaves.

A proactive insect control program helps prevent infestations before they cause serious damage.

The best treatment schedule depends on your plants and local conditions, but a seasonal care program is the most effective:

• Spring – Fertilization & early pest prevention.
• Summer – Root stimulation & insect/disease monitoring.
• Fall – Disease prevention & winter preparation.
• Winter – Strengthening roots for spring growth.

We use targeted, environmentally responsible treatments that effectively manage pests and diseases while minimizing impact on beneficial insects.

Results vary based on the health of your plants and the issues being treated. Many homeowners see noticeable improvements within a few weeks, while long-term benefits—such as stronger root systems and improved disease resistance—develop over multiple seasons.

Yes! Healthy plants are naturally more resistant to disease and insect infestations. Proper fertilization strengthens root systems and promotes lush, vigorous growth, making trees and shrubs less vulnerable to stress-related damage.

Absolutely! Newly planted trees and shrubs require specialized fertilization, watering, and pest protection to establish strong roots. We customize care programs to support young trees as they grow.
