Frequently asked questions
What makes Proper Pruning different from other pruning services?
Basically, everything! Some important differences are:
- For Proper Pruning, gas or electric hedge trimmers are the exception, not the rule, because in most cases that damages the plant. We mostly use bypass hand pruners and know in what situations it is okay to use power hedge trimmers.
- We have a very different kind of employee. Every one of our pruners speaks fluent English, has a college degree, and has training on how to prune different types of plants.
- Our pruners don’t treat every plant the same: they have an esthetic strategy for each landscape and the knowledge to prune each plant correctly for that strategy and the long-term health of the plant.
Why is using electric and gas-powered trimmers bad for plants?
While not always detrimental, over-reliance on electric and gas-powered trimmers in the industry can cause indiscriminate cutting, harming plants with large leaves or those susceptible to pests and diseases. With repeated use a thin green layer is created on the outside, blocking essential light and air, inviting pests and diseases, and hindering plant size control. Proper pruning techniques can prevent these issues and avoid premature plant replacement, offering long-term cost savings.
How often should I schedule pruning services?
Pruning frequency depends on your plants and landscape goals. We typically recommend 2-5 pruning sessions annually, tailored to your desired level of manicured appearance. Post-initial pruning, we’ll suggest a personalized schedule based on your landscape's specific needs.
Why can’t my lawn maintenance crew prune my plants?
Most lawn maintenance crews lack the specialized pruning skills we provide. At Proper Pruning, we invest in our employees, hiring exceptional talent and offering comprehensive training and competitive wages. This approach ensures you receive expert service from dedicated professionals focused on your complete satisfaction.
