LandscapExperts Tip of the Week, August 27


Executing a Landscape Renovation
Removal of Existing Plants and Shrubs

Step one in any renovation is the demolition. 
  • In landscaping, this refers to removing plants that cannot be salvaged or those in the way of paving and cannot be transplanted to another locale.
  • Some woody ornamentals can be cut off at ground level, but others will resprout and so must be dug out. 
  • Your LandscapExperts Team keep in mind that as one plant is dug up, the roots may be entwined with neighboring root systems, and we work to preserve the remaining shrubs.
  • For large trees, we call in our experienced Arborists to remove them safely. Firewood and wood chips are often salvageable.
