Questions and Answers
My shrubs in Rome are badly overgrown. Can you help, or do they need to be removed?
Absolutely, we can help. Overgrown shrubs are a common issue here. Our first step is a professional assessment. Often, expert shrub pruning or trimming can rejuvenate and reshape them beautifully. If they are diseased, poorly located, or beyond recovery, we can discuss shrub removal and replacement with a healthier, more suitable variety for your landscape. We'll always explore the most cost-effective solution to enhance your property's curb appeal.
What's included in your landscape maintenance to prevent weed overgrowth?
Our Rome-focused landscape maintenance is proactive. It includes regular lawn care (mowing, edging, fertilization) to promote thick grass that crowds out weeds, along with targeted shrub care and bed maintenance. We manage mulch levels, perform careful trimming to improve air circulation, and apply pre-emergent treatments when needed. This holistic approach doesn't just react to weeds; it creates a healthier landscape that naturally resists weed invasion.
How do you handle insect or disease problems in shrubs common to our area?
We provide specific insect and disease management for shrubs. After identifying the pest or fungal issue—common problems in our local humidity—we use targeted, environmentally responsible treatments. More importantly, we address the underlying causes through proper shrub pruning for airflow, adjusting watering schedules, and improving soil health. This expert care saves your existing plants and protects your investment in your landscape.
