​
Once you have a design developed it is time to purchase the appropriate bushes and shrubs. The landscape design has taken into account local climate conditions and matched the appropriate types of shrubs. They have also considered how quickly they will grow and their size once they mature. No one wants to see a yard that is overgrown in one or two years. Major trimming might be required along with the possible removal of some of the bushes and shrubs.

Next is the proper planting of a tree, bush or shrub. Local conditions will dictate how deep the hole will be along with the size of the plant you are placing. Larger holes may be required if you are dealing with heavy clay situations or lots of rock. Good drainage is also required. Surrounding the root ball with the appropriate soil is a necessity to ensure that the tree has a chance at surviving and growing. Follow watering instructions closely to avoid over saturation in wet conditions. Conversely if your soil is sandy with excellent drainage coupled with dry conditions, more water may be needed.

Each shrub or bush is a little bit different in terms of their requirements. If you are doing this work yourself take the time to learn what these requirements are to ensure you give your plant a fighting chance to survive. Your landscaper, in this case Greenwood Lawn Care has a team on staff to ensure that all of the proper steps are taken.
