It's time to plan your Summer Tree Pruning! Call now for a free estimate - 214-669-7767
To direct the growth by slowing the branches you don’t want; or to slow “dwarf” the development of a tree or branch, pruning should be done soon after seasonal growth is complete. The reason for the slowing effect is that you reduce the total leaf surface, thereby reducing the amount of food manufactured and sent to the roots. Another reason to prune in the summer is for corrective purposes. Defective limbs can be seen more easily, or limbs that hang down too far under the weight of the leaves.

Hedges are a great way to frame your landscaping or create a natural fence. Just like every other living thing, however, they require care to flourish. Why should you trim your hedges?
Hedges are touching buildings
Hedges are blocking windows and walkways
Shaped hedges have grown out
Dead sections need to be removed
Hedges need to be trimmed away from other plants

Are you making these common tree pruning mistakes?

You should give the lawn its first feeding of fertilizer in the spring when the soil temperature reaches 55 degrees Fahrenheit. You'll know when the soil warms up to 55 because the lilacs begin to blossom and the grass starts growing. For most parts of the country, that means the first feeding should take place by about mid-April. Now's the time to get on the schedule! Call 214.669.7767.

The second feeding should happen about four weeks later, in early to mid-May. Then fertilize every six to eight weeks after that through October.

And remember that fall feeding is critical. Grass is still growing in the fall. The roots are going down and they need fertilizer. This is the most important application of the year.
