Personal Gardening

Many companies do not properly train their employees or enforce the use of proper techniques. This often results in your landscape underperforming or looking overgrown between maintenance visits. If you allow things to become overgrown it only makes each visit take longer and cost more. Even getting the help to show up at the right time and do exactly what you want can seem like a never ending battle.

With the Personal Gardening Program, I routinely monitor your plant materials and update you to plans and progress along the way. This means weeds are removed immediately, (before they become unsightly) and things are pruned before they begin to look overgrown.

The first step is to meet at your home to determine your specific maintenance needs. I can then create a custom bundle of services for you. The maintenance services that may be included are as follows:

• Pruning: shrubs, vines & ornamental trees
• Weeding: landscape beds
• Dead-heading: annuals, perennials, & shrubs
• Edging & Mulching: landscape beds
• Fertilizing: shrubs, vines & ornamental trees
• Raking: landscape beds in fall and/or spring
• Pest scouting
• Cutting Back: grasses & perennials
• Thinning: spreading plant material as needed

Once you determine the specific tasks to be included, a 12 month agreement is signed by both parties. Then you can rest assured your landscape tasks will be completed in a timely manner (no reminders needed!).
