Hedges and shrubs are two great additions to any yard, adding a flair of naturalness to your landscape. Given the excellent growing conditions in the Pacific Northwest, these plantings need trimming, and in some cases, pruning. Whatcom Lawns, serving Bellingham and Whatcom county, has over two decades of experience in the landscaping industry, and can help you with the maintenance of your hedges and shrubs. Using care and skill, we will trim or prune as needed, maintain your plantings, and ensure that our standard of excellence is reflected in your yard!
Trimming and pruning generally include:
- Hand prune where appropriate
- Take care to trim vegetation away from house and walkways
- Remove the dead wood from the shrubs
- Thin out the shrubs
- Remove branches that rub other branches
- Thin out parallel branches
- Shape the shrubs as necessary for good aesthetics
- Clean up, haul away and dispose of debris
