Buush Waclers Landscape: Local Landscapers Serving Lewiston, ME 04240

Frost heave is common here after our Maine winters, pushing grass roots up and causing bare patches. We repair this by gently leveling the affected areas, reseeding with cold-hardy grass blends suited to our soil, and applying a light topdressing to protect new growth. Proper aeration in the fall can also help prevent future damage.

For overgrown shrubs, we recommend a method called renewal pruning, done in late winter or early spring. This involves carefully removing the oldest, thickest stems at ground level to stimulate new, healthy growth from the base. It controls size, improves air circulation, and restores the plant's natural shape without harming it.

Absolutely. We focus on preventive practices like applying a proper winter mulch layer to insulate plant roots, ensuring good drainage to reduce soil ice formation, and selecting native, hardy plants that withstand Lewiston's freeze-thaw cycles. A fall clean-up and assessment from our team can set your landscape up for a healthier spring.
