​Landscape Shrub Pruning and Enhancement Services Atlanta, GA

​Pruning and enhancing landscape shrubs is both an art and a science, especially in a city like Atlanta, where the diversity of plant life is as rich as its culture.
 
Mighty Oak Landscaping approaches this task with a keen understanding of the local flora, the climate, and the specific needs of each plant. Here’s a closer look at our services and why our expertise is such an asset to your property.
 
When Is the Right Time to Prune?
​For most shrubs in Atlanta, late winter or early spring, just before the new growth starts, is ideal for pruning. When it happens during this time, the plants become invigorated for robust growth.
 
If you have spring-flowering shrubs, Mighty Oak Landscaping would wait until just after they bloom, as these plants set their flower buds in the previous year.
 
Three common types of pruning can help your Atlanta property continue looking its best throughout the year while taking care of your shrubs.

• Thinning is the process of removing entire branches or stems to open up the plant, improve its shape, and allow light and air to penetrate the canopy. This option is particularly important in our humid climate to reduce the risk of fungal diseases.
• Heading back involves cutting back branches to just above a bud to encourage bushier growth. This approach is often used for shaping the shrub or keeping it within a specific size.
• Rejuvenation involves cutting the shrub back significantly to renew its vigor, especially for older shrubs that have become woody and less productive.

 
We only use clean and sharp tools to make precise cuts with our landscape shrub pruning services. This approach ensures no disease spreads between plants while working.
 
Landscape Enhancement Techniques in Atlanta
Our landscape enhancement services go beyond pruning. It involves fertilization, mulching, and pest management.
 
Mulching helps retain moisture, regulate soil temperature, and reduce weeds. A layer of organic mulch can break down over time, adding nutrients back into the soil.
 
We implement sustainable features and management options to conserve water while following today’s best practices for irrigation. Our team removes unwanted and dead shrubs, creates new landscape beds, and installs new plants to help your property look its best!
 
Before planting, we clear the area so any new beds or mulch have the chance to establish themselves correctly. From edging to the personal touches you want to see, we’ll turn your vision into reality with these services.
