Jon did an amazing job from start to finish and took the time to explain what I needed and why while customizing a plan for my yard. As a first time homeowner I really appreciated how knowledgeable Jon was and he answered all my questions patiently, I had a lot since we had some dead patches from the previous company. He came over for the estimate and also was at the house for the application and let me known if the plan should be updated as the lawn improved. Thanks!

The best time to prune trees and shrubs in Massachusetts depends on the species and purpose. In general, late winter to early spring (before new growth starts) is ideal for most trees and shrubs, while summer pruning can help control shape and size. Avoid heavy pruning in fall, as it can lead to disease and winter damage.
-
To protect your trees and shrubs during Massachusetts winters, apply a layer of mulch around the base to insulate roots, wrap vulnerable plants with burlap to shield them from wind and snow, and prune dead or weak branches to prevent breakage. For evergreens, consider anti-desiccant sprays to reduce moisture loss, and avoid using rock salt near plantings to prevent root damage.
-
A certified arborist is a tree care professional with specialized training in tree health, maintenance, and safety, accredited by the International Society of Arboriculture (ISA) or a similar organization. Hiring a certified arborist ensures expert care, proper pruning techniques, disease diagnosis, and safe tree removal, helping to protect your landscape and investment.
-
Signs of an unhealthy tree include dead or dropping branches, discolored or wilting leaves, fungal growth on the trunk, deep cracks or peeling bark, and sudden leaning or instability. Other warning signs include insect infestations, weak or brittle wood, and a lack of new growth in spring. If you notice any of these issues, a professional inspection can help determine the best course of action.
-
Newly planted trees and shrubs should be watered deeply 2-3 times per week for the first few months, ensuring the root zone stays moist but not waterlogged. After the first growing season, reduce watering to once per week, depending on rainfall and soil conditions.
-
The best fertilizer for trees and shrubs depends on soil conditions, but a slow-release, balanced fertilizer (such as 10-10-10 or 14-14-14) provides essential nutrients. Organic options like compost, bone meal, or fish emulsion can also improve soil health. A soil test can help determine the exact nutrients your plants need.
