Ornamental Tree Injections

Root flare injections to control certain insects, diseases, and some bacterial blights. Such as aphids, caterpillars, scale, flat and round-headed borers, apple scab, anthracnose, and most leaf fungus. The product is placed directly into the tree's xylem and is translocated throughout the tree, reducing any residual in the soil. Some products give one or two-year controls.

IPM Programs

IPM Programs are available at the customer's request. IPM Programs consist of a thorough evaluation of all your ornamental trees and shrubs. We will provide a plan after a careful diagnosis of your ornamental trees and shrubs is complete.

Soil Alleviation and Amendments

The soil around your trees becomes compacted over the years preventing water, nutrients, and oxygen from getting to them. Trees can also face mechanical resistance that physically limits root movement. We use compressed air to excavate and loosen all the soil from around the root zone. We then reintroduce a rich organic fertile soil with biochar additives back into the root zone. While increasing soil porosity and soil fertility, this process allows the tree's roots to grow abundantly, increase oxygen intake, and improve nutrient and water uptake. This process makes for healthier, more vigorous, and larger bloom trees.
