Young Landscaping: Experienced Landscaping Serving Rochester, MN 55901

For Rochester's common shrubs like lilacs or spirea, we recommend a multi-year renewal pruning plan. We carefully remove the oldest, thickest stems at ground level each season to encourage vigorous new growth from the base, which improves the plant's shape, health, and flowering. This method is far better than a harsh, one-time shearing, which can weaken plants and lead to more problems down the line.

Effective weed control in our area requires a two-pronged strategy: prevention and targeted removal. We start by applying pre-emergent herbicides at the right time in spring to stop weed seeds from germinating. For existing weeds, we use precise post-emergent treatments or careful manual removal. We also recommend improving soil health and lawn density through proper fertilization and aeration, as a thick, healthy lawn is your best defense against weed invasion.

We offer a comprehensive suite of maintenance services designed to keep common Rochester yard problems at bay. This includes seasonal clean-ups, regular mowing and edging, mulching to suppress weeds and retain moisture, perennial bed care, and shrub trimming. Our maintenance plans are customized to your property's specific needs, providing proactive care that saves you time and prevents small issues from becoming major headaches.
