Customized Nutrient Programs
We have carefully selected the best products, and in conjunction with state-of-the-art application equipment, we can provide your trees with a picture-perfect bill of health by:
Identifying nutrient deficiencies in YOUR soil, not your neighbor’s
Addressing your soil’s macro and micronutrient needs
Applying low volume bark applications to deliver nutrients to your tree quickly
Performing trunk applications for added nutrient benefits delivered straight to your tree
We proudly use Site One, Mirrichi Green, Arborjet, and Quest products for your tree’s fertilization, pest control, and nutritional needs.
Soil Moisture Management
Just like people, trees rely on a consistent water supply to maintain their health in addition to proper nutrition. Adequate moisture is essential for photosynthesis and other internal processes and plays a critical role in nutrient absorption.
In dry soil conditions, nutrients become inaccessible to tree roots, compounding the issue of dehydration with nutrient deficiency.
Our soil products help keep water right where the tree needs it. This service is especially effective for newly planted trees or trees within commercial/urban environments where soil deficiencies require optimal hydration.
Plant Growth Regulators – PGRs
While the term “growth regulator” makes some people think of a scary unnatural chemical or artificial process, plant growth regulators, or PGRs, are nothing to be afraid of.
Endorsed by the Tree Care Industry Association, PGR products like Shortstop by Arbor Jet are hormones that can significantly contribute to a tree’s health and longevity while addressing growing issues related to space, shading, and more by regulating the tree’s natural biological processes.
Simply put, PGRs are cutting-edge products designed to slow down a tree’s growth, allowing it to reallocate nutrients to other, more vital, biological functions, providing benefits such as:
Wound Closure
Regulated Root Growth
Increased Drought Resistance
Reduced Pruning
Reduced Fertilization
What PGRs Can Do for Your Yard
Wondering about the practical advantages of PGRs? These are just a few of the possibililities:
Growth control in crowded landscapes
Growth control to avoid shading a pool or deck
Reduced encroachment on utility lines and public spaces
Prevent trees from overshading golf course greens
Controlling growth in rights-of-way and commercial settings
Another important benefit of PGRs is that by controlling the rate of growth, trees are less likely to become unexpected hazards. This means the need for emergency services can be greatly reduced, and people and property are kept safe when severe weather hits.
And if you still need convincing on the benefits of PGRs, we should mention that by managing a tree’s growth, the time and money spent on routine maintenance is greatly reduced.

Frequently Asked Questions
The soil in urban and suburban environments doesn't generally have the nutrient density found in places like forests and rural locations where trees grow naturally.
That's the reason you should have your soil tested so any nutrient deficiencies can be addressed by adding additional nutrition.
We recommend fertilizing your trees 3 times per year, starting in the spring and applying additional treatment in the summer and the fall.
Your trees' needs change throughout the year, so each application is tailored to specific seasonal requirements.

Unfortunately, no. There are several reasons that most off-the-shelf lawn fertilizers aren't appropriate for trees. In addition to not typically having the correct nutrient balance for trees, lawn fertilizers can contain herbicides that will harm your trees.
Sometimes it's easy to tell if your trees aren’t getting all the nutrition they need. Be on the lookout for the following symptoms that can be a sign your trees need a fertilizer treatment:
- Stunted growth
- Bare twigs and a patchy crown
- Drooping leaves and early leaf drop
- Stunted fruit and excessive fruit drop
These are all signs your trees don’t have enough energy or available nutrients to maintain vigorous growth.
But remember, other conditions can cause these symptoms too. A professional evaluation by a certified arborist is the best way to rule out insect pests, diseases, or environmental and cultural issues that could be causing trees’ declining health.
Absolutely! Plant growth regulators (PGRs), also referred to as "tree growth regulators," are hormone products that work with a plant's natural biology to regulate physiological processes.
PGRs are a powerful tool we use to keep your trees healthy, reduce their maintenance, and keep them a beautiful part of your property.
