Shrub Trimming

We take out all the guess work out of shrub trimming. Roswell Tree Solutions will manicure your shrubs into any shape you desire. Whether you want privacy hedges or shaped to order.

WHEN TO TRIM SHRUBS

The most common question about shrub trimming is: “When?”

With flowering shrubs, the easiest “rule of thumb” to remember is to always trim shrubs within one month after they finish blooming – this way you don’t risk removing next year’s blossoms.

Trimming at the “Right Time”

Most shrubs are trimmed following their annual flush of growth. But some shrubs can suffer from late-summer trimming, which can cause a late flush of growth that doesn’t properly harden-off before the arrival of winter weather.

Cutting Shrubs Back

The most severe cutting-back of shrubs is best done in early spring, just prior to the emergence of new growth. We’ve had success rejuvenating large Yews, Junipers, Rhododendrons, and many other varieties during this early-season time frame.
