Jim Aery Landscaping - Southampton's Best Landscapers

Shrub decline here is often due to a combination of factors like compacted, nutrient-poor soil, salt spray from ocean winds, or undiagnosed fungal issues. Jim Aery Landscaping starts with a thorough inspection to pinpoint the exact cause. Our solutions may include soil aeration and amending, corrective pruning to remove diseased material and improve airflow, and selecting salt-tolerant, native plant species for replacements that are better suited to our coastal environment.

In our humid, coastal climate, red thread and dollar spot are frequent offenders, creating unsightly patches. We employ a multi-step approach: first, a precise diagnosis to confirm the fungus. Treatment involves applying a targeted fungicide, coupled with cultural practices like adjusting your mowing height, improving drainage, and tailoring a fertilization schedule to strengthen your grass's natural defenses, preventing future outbreaks.

Absolutely. Proactive care is key on the East End. Our seasonal maintenance programs are designed to prevent issues like fungus and shrub stress. This includes regular soil testing, balanced fertilization, proper irrigation audits to avoid over/under-watering, and preventative fungicide applications timed before peak disease seasons. Think of us as your partner in maintaining a resilient, healthy landscape year-round.
