Lot Clearing and Woodland Establishment!!!

Lot Clearing is vital for a healthy habitat

Clearing your lot of vines, scrub trees/invasive shrubs, and competing trees is vital to the overall health of your property. Vines on fences, leaves built up along property lines and uncontrolled under-story growth are all major detractors to the value of your home.

Your shrubs and trees will also have a better chance to survive, or thrive if the leaves are cleaned up around the base and interior. Leaving these landscape areas uncleaned is a prime environment for pests and disease.

Your Landscape is a major part of the appeal and value of your home. Don’t let it slip away when you have a local professional willing to help.  Serenescapes employs only knowledgeable staff and we advise you to do the same.

Gardening Tips

Environmentally-Friendly Weeding

Keeping your garden relatively weed free without the over-use of herbicides, involves a strong sense of timing. Weeding is especially important in the spring before flowers turn to seed. Best garden weeding months are April through August. Eliminating weeds before they flower and turn to seed in the spring will greatly help you manage your garden throughout the rest of the year. We recommend weekly or bi-weekly visits in the spring followed by monthly visits in the summer, so that our technicians can stay ahead of your weed growth cycles.
