Question Answers
What is the best way to protect my St. Louis shrubs from dying?
In St. Louis, shrub health often depends on proper seasonal care and soil conditions. We recommend a tailored approach that includes deep root fertilization to combat our clay-heavy soil, correct pruning times to avoid stress, and ensuring adequate mulch depth for moisture retention and root protection. Our team assesses each plant's specific needs to create a care plan that promotes resilience against our local weather extremes.
How can I keep weeds out of my mulch beds for good?
Effective, long-term weed control in mulch beds requires a multi-step strategy. First, we apply a pre-emergent herbicide in early spring to stop weed seeds from germinating. Second, we ensure a proper mulch depth of 2-3 inches to smother any breakthrough growth. Finally, we recommend using a landscape fabric barrier beneath new mulch installations. Our maintenance services include regular monitoring and spot treatment to keep your beds clean and healthy all season.
What makes St. Louis landscaping maintenance different?
St. Louis landscaping must account for our unique climate—hot, humid summers and variable winters with freeze-thaw cycles. This stresses plants and encourages specific weeds. Our maintenance plans are built around this local calendar, focusing on critical tasks like aeration in spring, adjusting watering schedules during summer heat, and applying winterizing treatments in the fall to protect your plants and soil structure year-round.
