Surrounded by an oak and pine forest, the scale of the plantings were of utmost importance. Three years young, we are anticipating the plantings will gently grow up together. Our maintenance crews meticulously groom the beds monthly and prune annually.

One common misconception is that there’s a singular “best time” to trim or prune your trees. Some service providers might advocate for off-season tasks, but this can sometimes result in an overestimation of required trimming, leading to a less-than-stellar bloom come spring. At Pro Tree Service, we recommend trimming a tree while in its full bloom. This gives our valued customers a clear, real-time visual representation of the final look. Trust us; we know trees, and we believe that seeing is believing.

A new cedar bridge spanning a sunken courtyard had been installed and we were asked to re-work the planting. We removed some overgrown plant material, pruned the trees and relocated some pants. New plants were added for color and year round interest many to blend in with the color of the stone on the house as well as the woodwork.

Fragrant lilacs provide the canopy for a fragrant bouquet of hosta and other shade loving plants. While usually bushy, the unique pruning of these allows for a more graceful look to this Madison garden. Shade loving hostas and other perennials soften the fenceline with their myriad of flowers.
