Question 1

Do you serve all of Irving?

Accepted Answer

Yes — Las Colinas, Valley Ranch, Hackberry Creek, Cottonwood Valley, Irving Heights, University Hills, Bear Creek and south Irving, plus nearby Coppell, Grand Prairie, Euless, Farmers Branch and Carrollton.

Question 2

How often should shrubs be trimmed?

Accepted Answer

Twice a year covers most Irving properties, with an extra light pass for fast growers such as ligustrum, boxwood and holly.

Question 3

When should I not trim?

Accepted Answer

Avoid hard cuts right before a hard freeze, and avoid pruning spring bloomers before they flower — you will cut off the buds set the previous season.

Question 4

Do you top crape myrtles?

Accepted Answer

No. Topping damages the tree and produces weak growth. We prune crape myrtles properly by removing suckers, crossing branches and small interior growth.

Question 5

Can you cut overgrown shrubs back hard?

Accepted Answer

Many species tolerate a hard renovation cut and come back fuller. Some do not. We will tell you which of your plants can take it and which should be replaced.

Question 6

Do you clean up the clippings?

Accepted Answer

Yes. Clippings are collected, beds and hard surfaces are blown clean, and all debris leaves with our crew.
